How a math quiz fits into live review

A teacher with a 45-minute review block rarely has time to write fresh questions from the chapter. A live math quiz built from the same pages your students read can be ready in minutes, with each question matched to the material they studied.

Upload a worksheet and get questions that match its wording and notation.
Review each explanation before class so you can correct any wrong step.
Print a PDF on Plus for a paper-based live session with no devices needed.
Export Moodle XML or QTI 2.1 on Pro to run the quiz in your LMS during class.

What is the sum of the interior angles of a hexagon?720 degrees. Split the hexagon into four triangles from one vertex, and each triangle contributes 180 degrees.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a math quiz have for a 45-minute review?

Most instructors find that 10 to 15 questions fit a 45-minute review, leaving time to discuss the trickiest ones. Start with fewer questions if students are new to the topic.

Why do the explanations matter for math practice?

An explanation shows the steps behind the answer, so a student can find the exact place where their reasoning went wrong. Reading the working is often more useful than seeing the correct letter alone.

Can I export a math quiz to Moodle?

Yes, Moodle XML export is included on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF and DOCX export are available on Plus, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month.

Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?

No. You can start on the Free plan without a credit card, which includes three generations per month and browser study, but no exports.
