What's The Back Up Plan?

Think about it, if the H1/N1 outbreak results in school closures students' will lose valuable education time. The job of math teachers will be even harder when the schools re-open because most of the students must catch up. I have recently read a press release from Adaptive technologies an e-learning company. They have pointed out that in case of school closures they have over 240 web based math lessons available.

These lessons may or may not fit in with every teachers lesson plan. However, it's worth thinking about if only on a management level. How will students' math education be continued if there are school closures.

Imagine if a company like Google were to offer a solution. Maybe the new Google Wave could be adapted to fit the needs of schools? Anyway the question remains. What can schools do as a back-up in case they must close in order to avoid spreading H1/N1? Surely some answers can be found in technology.
