Why build your quiz from your own notes

Most Gimkit-style quiz sessions rely on questions someone else wrote, which rarely match the exact reading or lecture your class covered. DeckOwl builds a Gimkit-style quiz from your own material, so the questions track what you actually need to know.

  • Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions
  • Explanations written for each answer
  • Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes and page photos
  • No credit card needed to start
Example photosynthesis quiz questions
Where do the light-dependent reactions take place in a chloroplast?In the thylakoid membranes. They need light to split water and make ATP and NADPH, which the Calvin cycle then uses.
Which gas is released as a product of the light-dependent reactions?Oxygen. Water molecules are split to replace electrons lost by chlorophyll, and the oxygen is released.
True or false: the Calvin cycle requires light directly.False. It runs on ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent reactions and fixes carbon dioxide into sugar.
What enzyme fixes carbon dioxide in the Calvin cycle?RuBisCO. It attaches CO2 to RuBP, starting the cycle that builds three-carbon sugar molecules.
How does increasing light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis at low light?It increases the rate, because more light drives more electron transport until another factor, such as CO2 or temperature, becomes limiting.

Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for your learning system.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slide deck, Word file, text notes or a photo of a page.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer. The free plan includes 3 generations per month.

Study or export

Take the quiz in your browser on any plan, or export it on Plus or Pro.

Each question includes an explanation, which shows why the right answer is right before you move on. Quizzes stay in the browser on the free plan, and Plus and Pro add exports for printing or loading into a learning system.

Start with a short set of questions, review the explanations, then retake the ones you missed until the answers come quickly.

Frequently asked questions

How many quiz questions should I write for a photosynthesis unit?

Start with 10 to 15 questions covering the light-dependent reactions, the Calvin cycle and the factors that limit the rate. Add more only if you still miss questions on a second pass.

What should a photosynthesis quiz cover?

Focus on the inputs and outputs, where each stage happens, and how light intensity, carbon dioxide and temperature change the rate. Short answer questions show whether you can explain the process, not just recognize terms.

Can I export a quiz to Moodle or print it?

Yes, on paid plans. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems.

Is the quiz generator free to try?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and in-browser study, with no credit card needed. Plus costs $39/year or $7.99/month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
