iChat AV keeps Christopher in class—while he battles cancer at home: "When Christopher Laub ‘sat in’ on a Spanish, social studies, reading, or math lesson, he actually ‘sat’ at home—miles away from his classroom—battling leukemia and undergoing chemotherapy. But thanks to iChat AV and iSight, Christopher could attend classes—even recess—on a regular basis. In fact, videoconferencing via his Mac and iChat not only kept Christopher connected with his friends and current with his classwork; it also let his fellow students learn about leukemia and its treatment, according to principal Patti Purcell. ‘Through the use of iChat AV, we’ve had many ‘teachable moments,’ and the kids have learned so much.’"
