[Yr11 Information Technology] [Year 12 IT Apps] GrokLearning and the Python Challenge

[Diana HATCH]

Works on iPads ... mostly.  I have had terrible trouble with the Run and
Submit for Marking links not being touch-responsive and when I become
frustrated and press repeatedly I suddenly find myself logged out and all
my code gone.  AARRGGHH!!!

If the computer is available it is a much better option, in my opinion.
