When you need a quiz, not a game code

If your class is stuck on Gimkit join codes that will not connect, DeckOwl cannot supply or repair that code. What it can do is turn the review material you already have into a quiz you control, so your practice does not depend on one game code.

  • Generate questions from the exact pages your class is studying
  • Check each explanation before you assign the quiz
  • Study the same set alone if a live session fails to connect
  • Start on the Free plan with no credit card required
Example biology quiz questions on cell structure
Which organelle produces most of a cell's ATP?The mitochondrion. It carries out most of cellular respiration, which generates ATP.
What is the main function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum?Synthesizing proteins for secretion or membranes. Ribosomes on its surface make these proteins.
Which structure controls what enters and leaves the cell?The plasma membrane. Its phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins makes it selectively permeable.
Where do the light reactions of photosynthesis take place in a plant cell?In the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. Light energy is captured there to make ATP and NADPH.
What does the nucleolus produce?Ribosomal subunits. It assembles ribosomal RNA with proteins before they are exported to the cytoplasm.

From your own material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or a photo of a page, and questions are drawn from that text.

Explanations on every answer

Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions each come with an explanation, so wrong answers still teach something.

Export when you need it

Plus exports PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, notes or a photo of a page.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, or mix them.

Study or export

Study in the browser on the Free plan, or export on a paid plan.

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or a photo of a page, and DeckOwl reads the text and writes multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions with an explanation for each one. The Free plan includes 5 generations a week and studying in the browser.

Exports are paid features: Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for a learning management system. If your review runs on a separate platform, you can bring the questions over instead of rewriting them by hand.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do if a live review game will not connect?

Have students work through the same questions on their own first, so a failed connection does not stop practice. Short sessions in the browser work well as a backup.

How many practice questions should a review quiz have?

Ten to twenty questions on one topic usually covers the main ideas without overwhelming students. Spacing several short quizzes out tends to work better than one long session.

Can I export my quiz to Moodle?

Yes, Moodle XML export is available on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. Plus, at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month, includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The Free plan includes 5 generations a week and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start.
