Casual teaching staff at some Australian universities are reported to be "panicking" over the implications of students who are unable to get to campus due to the COVID-19 Coronavirus: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/feb/19/casual-university-staff-struggle-to-cope-as-coronavirus-travel-ban-locks-out-international-students

Last week I was helping teach a hundred new tutors how to teach, and there were no signs of panic. Well, no more panic than any group of teaching assistants about to face their first class.

The same tools already used by Australian universities for blended learning can also used for online learning. Staff and students are already familiar with these tools. https://blog.highereducationwhisperer.com/2020/02/online-teaching-is-here-now.html
