The complaint and the rest of the story is told at Teachers Put to the Test by Digital Cheats. (Many thanks to @hychan_edu for sharing this.)

The 25 Best Apple iPad Games The Apple iPad, in both the standard and mini varieties, is a highly underrated video game platform. The PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Xbox One, Wii U, and 3DS may command the attention of most "real gamers," but the iPad—despite lacking physical buttons and being most closely associated with Angry Birds and other causal fare—shouldn't be overlooked.
