Building a math round from your own material

Your own math quiz show round can start from the chapter you already have, not from a generic question bank. Upload the notes, slides or PDF and DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions that match what you covered.

  • Multiple-choice questions with plausible wrong options taken from common mistakes
  • True/false items that test a single rule, such as a definition or a sign change
  • Short answer questions that ask for the method as well as the final number
  • Explanations written so each one shows the step where the reasoning could go wrong
Example algebra questions for a math quiz show
What is the slope of the line y = 3x − 5?3. In y = mx + b, m is the slope, so the slope here is 3.
True or false: every rectangle is a square.False. A square needs four equal sides, while a rectangle only needs right angles and opposite sides of equal length.
Solve for x: 2x + 7 = 19x = 6. Subtract 7 from both sides to get 2x = 12, then divide both sides by 2.
What is the derivative of x²?2x. The power rule multiplies by the exponent and lowers the exponent by one.
What is 15% of 240?36. Ten percent of 240 is 24 and five percent is 12, so 24 plus 12 gives 36.

Questions from your material

Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX files, plain text notes or photos of pages, and get questions drawn from what you actually covered.

Three question types

Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation so the answer shows the reasoning behind it.

Export when you need it

Plus adds PDF and DOCX export. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for a learning management system.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a chapter, a slide deck or a set of typed notes. Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition.

Choose the question type

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, then set how many you want for the round.

Review and use the questions

Check the answers and explanations, then run the round from the browser or export the set on a paid plan.

Each question comes with an explanation, which matters in math because the reasoning is often the point. When a student picks a wrong answer, the explanation turns the miss into a short lesson instead of just a red mark.

The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Paid plans remove the limit and add exports for printing or for a learning management system.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a math quiz show round have?

Ten to twenty questions usually fits one round, since it keeps the pace up and gives each topic a few checks. Start with the sections covered most recently.

How do I write math questions that test understanding instead of memory?

Ask for the method, not only the final number, and include a common mistake as one of the wrong options. Check that each explanation shows the step where the reasoning could go wrong.

Can I export the quiz to a learning management system?

Yes, QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are part of the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus, at $7.99 per month or $39 per year.

Can I try DeckOwl without a credit card?

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.
