Writing exam questions from your own lessons

Writing a fresh set of questions after every unit takes hours that most teachers do not have. An exam generator for teachers reads the material you already taught and drafts questions from it, so you spend your time reviewing instead of starting from a blank page.

Write questions that test understanding, not just recall of a single sentence.
Mix question types so students show both recognition and explanation.
Keep distractors plausible so a correct answer cannot be guessed by elimination alone.
Review every generated item against your objectives before the exam goes out.

Example exam-writing questions for teachers

Why should a multiple-choice distractor reflect a common misconception?Plausible distractors reveal specific misunderstandings. Obviously wrong options let students pick the answer by elimination, which tells you nothing about what they know.

Should a true/false item contain more than one claim?No. Keep one claim per item, because a statement with two parts is false if either part is wrong, which makes scores hard to interpret.

Which question type best tests whether a student can explain a process?Open-ended short answer. Multiple-choice items mostly check recognition, so an explanation question shows whether the student can reconstruct the reasoning.

What should you check before reusing an AI-drafted question?Confirm it matches a stated objective and that the keyed answer is correct. A generated item can read well and still test the wrong idea or have a wrong key.

Why does reviewing answer keys matter before a graded exam?A flawed answer key marks correct responses wrong, so checking each key before grading keeps scores fair.

Generate the full set

Questions from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain text or photos of pages. Questions cover what you actually taught, not generic filler.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open

Choose the question type that fits each learning objective. Every item comes with an explanation you can check before it reaches students.

Export for printing or your LMS

Paid plans export to PDF and DOCX for printing, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for your learning management system.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a lesson PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page. Text recognition reads images too.

Pick question types

Select multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and choose how many you need.

Review and export

Edit anything that does not match your objectives, then export if you are on a paid plan.

The draft is a starting point, not a finished test. Check that each question matches a learning objective, that distractors in multiple-choice items are plausible, and that true/false statements are not tricky by accident. Explanations make the review faster because you can see why each answer is right.

Because questions come from your own slides and notes, the exam reflects what happened in class. Paid exports let you print a paper version or import the set into Moodle or another LMS.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a classroom exam be?

Match the length to the time students have and the number of objectives you need to cover. Keep a sensible balance across question types so the exam measures both recognition and explanation.

What makes a good multiple-choice distractor?

A good distractor is a wrong answer that a student with partial understanding might choose, such as a common misconception. Avoid options that are obviously false or that give away the answer through length or wording.

Can I export generated exams for printing or my LMS?

Yes, on paid plans. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Does the generator work from scanned pages or photos?

Yes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition, and you can also upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX or plain text. Check generated questions against the source, since poor photos or handwriting can cause missed text.
