Making a Moodle quiz from your own material

Instructors who need a Moodle quiz often start with a lecture deck or a stack of notes rather than a blank question bank. DeckOwl reads PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain text and photos of pages, then drafts multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions with explanations.

  • Question types: multiple choice, true/false and short answer
  • Explanations written for each answer option
  • Generation from PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes or page photos
  • Moodle XML and QTI 2.1 export on the Pro plan
Example Moodle quiz questions with answers
Which Moodle question type checks whether a statement is correct or incorrect?True/false. It offers exactly two answer options, so it suits yes or no statements.
Which Moodle question type accepts a number within an acceptable margin?Numerical. It lets the instructor set a tolerance around the correct value so small rounding differences are still marked correct.
Which multiple-choice setting randomizes the order of answer options?Shuffle the choices. It reorders answers for each attempt, which makes copying between students harder.
Which quiz setting controls how many times a student can take a quiz?Attempts allowed. It sets the maximum number of attempts per student, which can be unlimited.
What file format does Moodle use to import questions in bulk?Moodle XML. It is an XML file the question import tool reads, which lets instructors write or export many questions at once.

Questions from your own material

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

Explanations for every answer

Each multiple-choice, true/false and short answer question includes an explanation students can read after an attempt.

Export for Moodle on Pro

The Pro plan adds Moodle XML and QTI 2.1 export so questions can be imported into your course question bank.

How it works

Upload your material

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

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, and set how many questions you want from the material.

Review and export

Edit wording, remove weak distractors, then study in the browser or export when your plan allows it.

Review each question before it goes into the course. Edit the wording, replace distractors that are too easy to rule out, and keep the explanations for students who review after an attempt. The free plan covers browser study, and exports are included on paid plans.

Frequently asked questions

What question types does a Moodle quiz support?

Moodle quizzes include multiple choice, true/false, short answer, numerical, matching and other types. The exact list depends on your Moodle version and installed plugins, so check your question bank settings.

How many questions should a Moodle quiz have for one lecture?

There is no fixed rule, but aim for at least one question per learning objective in the lecture. Use distractors that reflect common student mistakes so the quiz tests understanding rather than recall alone.

Can I export generated questions to Moodle?

Moodle XML export is included on the Pro plan, along with QTI 2.1. PDF and DOCX exports are on Plus, while the free plan keeps studying in the browser.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 5 generations a week and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Exports require a paid plan.
