How to make your own quiz from your own material

Most people who want to make your own quiz on Kahoot are really looking for questions tied to what they are studying, not a generic template. DeckOwl starts from your material: upload lecture slides, a Word file of notes or a photo of a textbook page, and the text is read and turned into questions.

Example cell biology quiz questions

Which organelle produces most of a cell's ATP?Mitochondria. They carry out cellular respiration, which makes most of the cell's ATP.

What is the main function of ribosomes?Protein synthesis. Ribosomes read mRNA and link amino acids into polypeptide chains.

True or false: plant cell walls are made mainly of cellulose.True. Cellulose gives the wall its rigidity and stops the cell from bursting when it takes in water.

Why does a red blood cell swell and burst when placed in pure water?Osmosis. Water moves into the cell because its solute concentration is higher, and the membrane has no wall to resist expansion.

What does the Golgi apparatus do?It modifies, sorts and packages proteins and lipids. It receives vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum and ships them to their destinations.

Three question types with explanations

Get multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions. Each one includes an explanation so you learn why the answer is right, not just whether you picked it.

Export when you need it

How it works

Upload your material

Add slides, notes, a document or a photo of a page. No credit card is needed to start.

Choose question types and count

Pick multiple-choice, true/false, short answer or a mix, and set how many questions you want.

Review and take the quiz

Check the questions against your source, edit anything that looks off, then work through the quiz in your browser.

Each question comes with an explanation, so the quiz works as practice and not only as a score. Review the questions before you rely on them, because AI can miss context or misread a detail, and change anything that does not match your course. The quiz runs in your browser for self-study.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a cell biology quiz have?

Ten to twenty questions covers most chapters well enough for a self-test. Start shorter and add more once you see which topics need work.

What is the best way to study with a quiz?

Answer each question before reading the explanation, then retake the ones you missed after a day or two. Spaced review helps more than cramming the night before.

Can I export my quiz?

Exports are a paid feature. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and you do not need a credit card to start.
