Why build the review from your own material

Students and teachers who want a Gimkit don't look down style review usually already have the material in slides, PDFs or class notes. DeckOwl reads those files and writes multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions, so the review matches what was actually taught.

  • Questions are drawn from your own slides, notes or documents
  • Multiple choice, true/false and short-answer formats
  • Explanations explain both the right answer and the common mistakes
  • Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study
Example review questions on memory and study habits
Why does spacing study sessions over several days tend to beat one long cram session?Spaced practice gives memory time to consolidate, so recall is stronger later. Cramming often feels effective but fades faster.
What is retrieval practice?Pulling an answer from memory instead of rereading it. Each recall attempt strengthens the memory more than passive review does.
True or false: rereading your notes is the most effective way to remember them.False. Rereading feels familiar but produces weaker recall than testing yourself on the same material.
Why should you revisit the questions you got wrong more often?They show the gaps in your recall. Repeating them until you answer correctly focuses study time where it helps most.
What does an explanation add to a practice question?It shows why the correct answer is right and why the wrong options are wrong, so each mistake becomes a lesson.

Built from your material

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the questions come from what your class actually covered.

Explanations on every question

Each answer includes a short explanation, so a missed question teaches you why the right answer is right.

Study in the browser or export

Study free in the browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a page. Text in images is read with text recognition.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate a set for the topic you are reviewing.

Study and repeat

Work through the questions, read the explanations, and come back to missed items until you can answer them cleanly.

Each question comes with an explanation, so a wrong answer becomes something to learn from rather than just a lost point. Review the missed questions first, then run the set again a day or two later to see what has stuck.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I repeat a practice quiz?

Repeat missed questions after a day or two, then again after about a week. Spacing the attempts out usually works better than repeating the whole set in one sitting.

Why do explanations matter more than the score?

An explanation shows why the correct answer works and why the distractors do not, which fixes the misunderstanding behind the mistake. Reading it right after a wrong answer makes the correction stick.

Can I export my quiz?

Exports are paid features: PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export are on Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro. Browser study is included on the free plan.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month and study in the browser, and students get 40% off with a school email.
