I was asked to comment by Times Higher Education on what might be Alan Tudge, the new Australian education minister's approach. https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/australian-minister-tipped-rethink-building-blocks-degrees

In 2013 he chaired a committee investigating online learning particularly for International students. This did not appear to receive support from his colleagues, or the Australian higher education sector at the time. However, as I commented in THE article, the need to teach students during COIVD-19 has shown the value of on-line learning. The problem for the new Minister is now to recast the national strategy for higher education with online learning at its core. https://blog.highereducationwhisperer.com/2021/01/new-australian-education-minister-needs.html
