Why build the questions first

Adding a picture to a Google Forms quiz with images takes a few clicks, but writing the questions and answer choices around each picture takes much longer. Starting from your own slides or notes keeps the quiz tied to what was actually taught.

  • Insert images into the question or into individual answer choices.
  • Turn on quiz mode in Settings to set answer keys and points.
  • Review every generated question against the source before importing it.
  • Keep image files small enough that they load quickly on student devices.

Questions from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain notes or photos of pages. Text in photos is read with text recognition before questions are written.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions

Pick the question type that fits the lesson. Each question comes with an explanation of the correct answer, which helps when you review results.

Export on paid plans

Plus exports PDF and DOCX. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning platforms. Google Forms itself is built in its own editor, so you add images there by hand.

How it works

Upload your source

Add the PDF, slides, notes or a photo of the diagram or page you want to quiz on.

Review the generated questions

Check each question and explanation against your source, then keep, edit or remove items before you build the quiz.

Build the quiz in Google Forms

Paste questions into a new Google Form, turn on quiz mode, add images with the image icon, and set the answer key and points.

A good image question asks students to read the figure, not just recognize it. For example, ask which labeled part of a diagram carries a signal, or which step in a chart comes first. Write the distractors so that each wrong choice matches a common mistake.

Keep the final check in Google Forms. Preview the quiz on a phone, confirm that every image loads, and test one question as a student would see it before you share the link.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add an image to a Google Forms quiz question?

Open the form, click the image icon in the toolbar on the right, and upload a picture from your computer or Google Drive. You can also add images to answer choices when you build a multiple-choice question.

How many questions should a practice quiz have?

Most classroom practice quizzes work well with 10 to 20 questions. A shorter quiz with a few image-based questions is easier to review than one long list.

Does DeckOwl export directly to Google Forms?

No, there is no direct Google Forms export. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML, so you copy questions into Google Forms yourself.

Can I try DeckOwl before paying?

Yes, the Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start. Exports require a paid plan.
