Turn your history notes into an online quiz in English
Upload a chapter, lecture slides or typed notes. DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions with explanations, so you test yourself on what your class actually covered.
Why a custom history quiz beats a generic one
A ready-made history quiz rarely matches the chapter your class covered last week. Upload your own lecture slides or reading and DeckOwl builds an online history quiz in English that tests those exact events, names and dates.
- Questions follow the wording and emphasis of your own course material
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer formats in one quiz
- Explanations after each answer explain the reasoning, not just the right letter
- Free plan to start in the browser with 3 generations per month, no credit card needed
Questions from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages read with text recognition.
Three question formats
Get multiple choice, true/false and short-answer questions in one quiz.
Explanations for every answer
Read why an answer is right or wrong so you learn the reasoning behind each date, cause and event.
How it works
Upload your history material
Add a chapter PDF, lecture slides or typed notes in English.
Choose your question format
Pick multiple choice, true/false or open questions for the quiz.
Answer and review
Work through the quiz in your browser and read the explanation after each answer.
Generic quizzes often test trivia you have not studied, which makes the score hard to act on. A quiz drawn from your notes shows which causes, treaties or figures you have not yet learned, and each explanation points you back to the right part of your material.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a history quiz have?
For a single chapter, 10 to 20 questions is a practical range to start with. Retaking a short quiz a few times across the week builds recall better than one long sitting.
How do I study history dates and events effectively?
Group events by cause and consequence instead of memorizing dates alone, then test yourself on the sequence. Spacing your review over several days, with flashcards or quiz retakes, helps the dates stick.
Can I export the quiz?
Exports are paid features. The Plus plan includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and the Pro plan adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no exports. No credit card is needed to start.
