Outside of school, I run a local business in Tampa and want to learn somethin new. I enjoy working i guess because that is all I do. Please feel free to…
I am experimenting with using Canvas for Teachers iOS app for grading on my iPad.

I want to add a row below, but this produces an additional row with the leftmost cell divided into two rows. I cannot access the bottom of these two rows. I cannot merge them. Any ideas? Or would it be quicker just to…
