How the Moodle quiz builder works

Most Moodle quizzes start as an empty question bank and a stack of lecture slides. A Moodle quiz builder can turn that material into draft questions in minutes, so your time goes to checking accuracy instead of typing every option by hand.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions generated in one run
Explanations written for each answer so students learn from mistakes
Moodle XML export on Pro, plus QTI 2.1 for other learning systems
Free plan includes 5 generations a week, with studying in the browser
