text: If students were allowed to attend classes from home, it would be very beneficial. Learning through technology would allow absent students and teachers to keep up with their work and even get ahead for absences in the future. For example, it is likely that most students will have occasional sick days during the school year. More often than not, kids are stuck between going to school feeling miserable, or staying home while missing new curriculum. This puts everyone in a bad position. However, it can be easily prevented by learning through hand held devices and communicating via technology.
