Dragging And Dropping On Tablet
The tablets have been having a few glitches with Kickstand. After the students log into Kickstand and they have an assignments where they have to drag and drop something, have them do this:
Click the 3 vertical dots in the upper-right corner of Google Chrome (first photo on right)
Scroll down to DESKTOP SITE, and put a check in the square (second photo on right)
This should allow the student to PRESS once on the item to be moved, and then press the location where it needs to end up.
