MY ROLL
Templates of Newspaper pages and inline editing
We provide the students with up to 6 different real pages types, each has 2-3 templates to choose from. This way the students can create each page or each newspaper differently.
The work is done by choosing and editing each part of the template, where each part has it's own tools:
Photo > opens a gallery to choose from or upload to
Text > opens a text editing tool
Background > provides a color picker, limited to relevant colors
