What to do when your class moves to a new season

Your class may have moved on to a new season unit before you have had time to review it. DeckOwl does not track Gimkit's own season updates, but if you are studying a gimkit new season topic, you can turn your own notes into a quiz in a few minutes.

Questions are based on your own lesson material, not a generic bank.
Each question includes an explanation of the correct answer.
Free plan: 3 generations a month, studied in the browser.
Paid plans add exports for PDF, DOCX and, on Pro, QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.

Example earth science quiz questions on seasons

What causes Earth's seasons?Earth's axial tilt of about 23.5 degrees changes how directly sunlight reaches each hemisphere through the year.

True or false: Earth is closest to the sun in July.False. Earth is closest to the sun in early January, so distance does not cause summer in the Northern Hemisphere.

Why does direct sunlight heat the ground more than slanted sunlight?Direct sunlight concentrates its energy into a smaller area, while slanted sunlight spreads the same energy over more ground.

Which hemisphere has summer in December?The Southern Hemisphere, because its tilt points toward the sun during December.

What are the equinoxes?Two dates each year, around March 20 and September 22, when day and night are roughly equal in length everywhere because neither pole is tilted toward the sun.

Review and study

Check the explanations, study in the browser, and export to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan.

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page, and the tool reads the text and writes multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions with explanations. Free accounts get 3 generations a month. Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month, adds unlimited generations and PDF or DOCX export. Pro, at $14.99/month, adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export.

Seasons make a good test of whether a quiz is useful, because many students still think distance from the sun causes summer. A good question set should catch that mistake, and the explanation should say why it is wrong.

Frequently asked questions

What causes the seasons on Earth?

Seasons are caused mainly by Earth's axial tilt of about 23.5 degrees, which changes how directly sunlight hits each hemisphere during the year. Distance from the sun plays only a small role.

How should I study a unit on seasons before a test?

Test yourself with short questions before rereading notes, and focus on the mistakes you make most often. Explaining why each wrong answer is wrong is one of the fastest ways to fix a misunderstanding.

Can I export the quizzes I generate?

Exports are paid features. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems.

Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?

No. The free plan includes 3 generations a month and does not require a credit card to start. Students can get 40% off a paid plan with a school email.
