VGO: The Newest Educational Tech 

This new technology allows a child to attend school remotely during long periods of treatment when they are normally disconnected from the classroom and from friends. 
VGO and Patient
According to VGO, "For some students, attending school just isn’t possible. Injuries, extended illnesses, immune deficiencies and other physical challenges prevent a student from physically being able to attend school. School districts try to accommodate these special needs by providing on-line courses, in-home tutors, special busing, videoconferencing and more. But these are expensive and very limiting since students – particularly in middle school and high school – miss out on the classroom experience and social life that comes with attending school.

Now with VGo, they can participate in interactive classroom discussions and share in the social aspects of locker-side chats, lunch period and moving from class to class. Even attending school assemblies and after school activities – all from a laptop at home."
