Turn your own notes into a Gimkit-style quiz
Upload a PDF, slide deck or set of notes and DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions with explanations. You get a quiz built from your material, not a generic question bank.
What a Gimkit-style quiz generator should do for your class
A Gimkit-style quiz generator is most useful when the questions come from the exact material your students are reviewing. DeckOwl reads your own PDF, slides or notes and writes questions based on that content, so a fractions and decimals unit gets questions about the methods your teacher used.
- Questions come from your own material, not a generic bank.
- Each question includes an explanation of the correct answer.
- Free plan: 3 generations per month with browser study.
- Plus and Pro add exports for PDF, DOCX, and learning management system formats.
Any source you already have
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX files, plain text notes or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.
Mixed question types
Get multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation so wrong answers teach something.
Export when you need it
Plus exports to PDF and DOCX. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for uploading to your learning management system.
How it works
Upload your material
Add the chapter, slides or notes you want to review, or paste the text directly.
Pick your question types
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, or a mix of all three.
Study or export the quiz
Work through the questions in your browser, or export them if you are on a paid plan.
DeckOwl creates the questions and answer explanations, not a live game board. If you want a game-style review, take the questions you generate and use them in whatever format your class already runs.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should I make for a fractions and decimals unit?
Aim for a set you can finish in one sitting, mixing conversions, comparisons and simplifying so each skill gets practice. Generate separate sets for each lesson if the unit covers a lot of ground.
What is the fastest way to learn converting fractions to decimals?
Practice dividing the numerator by the denominator and memorize common conversions like 1/4 = 0.25 and 1/2 = 0.5. Short, frequent review works better than one long session.
Can I export the quiz to my learning management system?
QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on the Pro plan, and PDF and DOCX export are on Plus. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and you do not need a credit card to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
