Turn your own notes into a canvas krokus quiz
Upload a PDF, slide deck or set of notes and get practice questions with explanations, ready to study in the browser or export as a QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML file.
Why build your quiz from your own material
A canvas krokus quiz works best when it reflects the readings and slides your class actually uses, not a generic set of questions. Generating from your own files keeps the wording, terms and emphasis close to what will appear on your next test.
- Questions are drawn only from the file you upload.
- Explanations show the reasoning behind the correct answer.
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study.
- Paid plans add unlimited generations and QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML export.
Three question types
Multiple choice, true/false and short open questions, generated from the material you upload.
Explanations on every answer
Each question comes with a short reason, so wrong answers become study points instead of dead ends.
Export when you need it
Paid plans export QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML files for course platforms, plus PDF and DOCX copies.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a page.
Choose the question types
Pick multiple choice, true/false or open questions and set how many you want.
Study or export
Work through the quiz in your browser, or export it on a paid plan.
Each question includes an explanation, so you can check why the correct answer is right and where your reasoning slipped. Run the quiz again after a few days to see which items you still miss.

Frequently asked questions
What should a crocus quiz cover for an intro botany course?
Focus on the plant's family, its corm structure, its flowering cycle and its economic uses such as saffron. Questions on how structures differ from related plants like true bulbs tend to be the most useful for checking understanding.
How do I quiz myself on crocus biology effectively?
Answer each question before reading the explanation, then write one sentence on why the answer is right. Repeat the items you missed after a short gap to strengthen recall.
Can I export my quiz to a course platform?
Yes, on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month you can export QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML files. The Free plan includes browser study only, with no exports.
Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?
The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and you do not need a credit card to start. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
