Gloss is designed to support a paperless workflow in the classroom. Open a new “canvas” and layer text, images, and drawings. Add a layer of gloss to photos or PDF documents – perfect for worksheets, tests and quizzes. Turn on graph paper for math class or create elaborate drawings and scenes to add to any creative project. Easily share Gloss masterpieces with teachers, family, or friends.
Gloss is free from Curriculum Pathways, provided by SAS.
