How an AI history quiz works
Teachers and students who need a history quiz made with AI can start from the readings, lecture slides or notes they already have. Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page, and DeckOwl reads the text and writes questions from it.
- Multiple choice, true/false and open questions in one set
- Explanations for every answer, including the wrong ones
- Works from PDFs, slides, notes and photos of pages
- Free plan includes 3 generations a month with no credit card
Questions from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes or a photo of a page and get questions drawn from that text.

How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slides, a text file or photos of pages.
Pick a format
Select multiple choice, true/false or open questions.
Study and review
Answer the quiz in your browser and read each explanation.
Each question comes with an explanation, so a wrong answer about dates, causes or sources becomes a short lesson. You choose multiple choice, true/false or open questions, and the quiz stays tied to your course material rather than general trivia.
The free plan includes 3 generations a month with study in the browser. Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF or DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems.

Frequently asked questions
How should I study for a history quiz covering many dates and events?
Group events by cause and effect rather than memorizing dates in isolation, and test yourself on why each event happened. Retake the quiz after a day or two to check what you remember.
Which history questions work best as quiz items?
Questions about causes, consequences and the significance of events test understanding better than single-date recall. Mix in short answer questions so you practice explaining rather than only recognizing.
Can I export an AI history quiz to a learning management system?
Yes, on the Pro plan you can export QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML files. PDF and DOCX export is included in Plus, and the free plan keeps you studying in the browser.
Does the free plan include quiz generation?
Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month with study in the browser. Unlimited generations start on Plus at $39 a year or $7.99 a month.
