How a Gimkit tutorial for teachers fits into your planning

Most teachers who type a Gimkit tutorial for teachers into a search bar want to run a live game with clear rules and well-written questions. DeckOwl does not run live games or teach Gimkit's interface, but it can write the questions. Upload a slide deck or notes and it drafts multiple-choice, true or false, or open questions with explanations that you review before class.

Drafts questions from your own slides, notes or PDFs rather than generic banks
Covers multiple-choice, true or false, and open questions
Includes an explanation with each answer for review
Exports to PDF or DOCX on Plus, and QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on Pro

Example quiz questions for writing a class review

Which question format checks recall best when students must produce the answer without seeing options?Short answer, because students must generate the term themselves rather than recognize it among choices.

Why should each multiple-choice distractor be a plausible wrong answer?Implausible distractors let students guess correctly without knowing the material, which inflates scores and hides gaps.

True or false: a statement containing the word 'always' is usually true?False, because absolute words like 'always' are usually wrong, so students can exploit them without knowing the content.

What should a good explanation do after a student answers a quiz question incorrectly?Show why the correct answer is right and why the chosen one is wrong, so the mistake becomes a learning moment.

How many answer choices suit most classroom multiple-choice items?Usually four, since that gives enough plausible distractors while keeping the question short enough to read quickly.

Generate the full set

Questions from your material

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of a printed page, and get multiple-choice, true or false, or open questions drawn from that content.

Explanations for every item

Each question includes an explanation of the correct answer, so you can review the reasoning and adjust wording before students see it.

Export for your LMS

Download PDF or DOCX on Plus, or QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro, to load questions into the system your school already uses.

How it works

Upload your lesson

Add a slide deck, reading or set of notes. Text is extracted from PDFs, DOCX, PPTX and images.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true or false, or open questions, then generate a set for the topic you are teaching.

Review and export

Edit any question that is unclear, then study in the browser or export if your plan includes it.

Exports depend on your plan. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems. Whichever tool you use to run the game, a reviewed question bank built from your own lesson is the part that takes the most time to write by hand.

Frequently asked questions

How do I write good multiple-choice questions for a class quiz?

Keep one clearly correct answer and make each wrong option a plausible mistake a student might really make. Avoid answers like 'all of the above' and keep option lengths similar so the correct one does not stand out.

How many questions should a short classroom review quiz have?

Ten to fifteen questions usually fit a 10 to 15 minute review without rushing students. Mix question types so recall, recognition and reasoning are all checked.

Can I export DeckOwl questions to Moodle?

Yes, Moodle XML export is available on the Pro plan. Exports to PDF and DOCX are included on Plus, and the Free plan is for studying in the browser only.

Does DeckOwl have a free plan for teachers?

Yes, the Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, with no exports. Students can get 40% off a paid plan with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.
