Where DeckOwl fits alongside Moodle quiz analytics

Teachers who check moodle quiz analytics usually want to know which items confused students and why. Moodle's reports show facility, discrimination and distractor patterns, but those numbers only help if the questions were well written in the first place.

Draft items from the same lecture so analytics compare like with like.
Check every explanation before students see the item.
Flag items with unclear wording after the first attempt.
Keep question stems short so difficulty reflects the content, not the reading load.

Example quiz item analysis questions for Moodle

What is a facility index?The proportion of students who answered the item correctly, from 0 to 1. It shows how difficult the item was for that group.

What does a discrimination index near zero suggest?The item does not separate strong from weak students well. Review the wording and answer key, since the question may be confusing.

In distractor analysis, what does it mean when a wrong option is chosen by almost no one?It is a non-functional distractor that does not attract weaker answers. Rewrite it with a plausible misconception so it contributes to the item.

What discrimination index value is often treated as acceptable for a classroom item?About 0.3 or higher. Higher values mean high scorers answer it correctly more often than low scorers, which is what a good item should do.

What does a small standard deviation of quiz scores indicate?Scores are clustered close to the mean. Most students performed similarly, so the quiz may not spread out strong and weak learners.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good discrimination index for a quiz item?

Many instructors treat values around 0.3 or higher as acceptable, since higher values mean the item separates stronger and weaker students more clearly. Negative values usually mean the item or its answer key needs review.

What does a facility index tell me about a Moodle quiz question?

It is the share of students who answered correctly, so a value near 1 means the item was easy for the group. Very low or very high values can signal a wording or content problem worth checking.

Does DeckOwl show Moodle quiz analytics?

No. DeckOwl does not connect to Moodle or calculate item statistics; it generates questions and explanations from your material. Moodle's own quiz reports handle the analytics after students attempt the quiz.

Is Moodle XML export included in the free plan?

No. Moodle XML export is a Pro feature at $14.99 per month, and the free plan includes 5 generations a week with study in the browser only.
