How to make a lecture quiz from your own notes

Lecture slides pile up fast, and most students only reread them before an exam. Running your materials through this AI lecture quiz maker builds questions from what you already have, so the quiz matches your professor's emphasis rather than a generic textbook.

  • Get multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions
  • Read an explanation for every answer
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus; QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Example lecture quiz questions on how students learn
True or false: Rereading lecture notes is as effective as self-testing for long-term retention.False. Retrieval practice, which means testing yourself, produces stronger long-term recall than passive rereading.
Which effect explains why reviewing lecture material a day later beats cramming the night before?The spacing effect. Distributed practice strengthens memory more than massed practice does.
Why should you summarize a lecture in your own words instead of copying slides word for word?Paraphrasing requires you to process the ideas, which encodes them more deeply than verbatim copying.
What is the best first step after a lecture if you want to check understanding?Answer a few questions from memory, then check your notes. This reveals gaps while the material is still fresh.
What does a Cornell note-taking cue column hold?Keywords or questions written after class, which you cover up to quiz yourself against the notes on the right.

The free plan studies in the browser. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for your LMS.

How it works

Upload your lecture

Add slides, a PDF, a DOCX file, notes, or a photo of a page.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer for the quiz.

Study and review

Answer in the browser, read the explanations, then return to the questions you missed.

Start with the slides and your own notes from that session. Generate a short quiz right after class, then take it again a few days later, since spaced self-testing holds up better than rereading. Read each explanation, especially for the questions you got wrong.

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month, adds unlimited generations and PDF or DOCX export, and students get 40% off with a school email.

Frequently asked questions

How soon after a lecture should I quiz myself?

Within a day is a good start, since recall fades quickly without review. Repeat the quiz a few days later to strengthen what you remember.

Can I export the quiz to my school's LMS?

Does the free plan include exports?
