Why build a Moodle quiz from your own material

If your course runs on Moodle, a Moodle quiz platform that starts from your own lecture slides and readings saves hours of writing questions by hand.

  • Start from PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages
  • Get multiple-choice, true/false and open questions with explanations
  • Export Moodle XML or QTI 2.1 on the Pro plan
  • Study in the browser on the Free plan, which allows 3 generations per month
Example Moodle quiz question types
Which Moodle question type accepts a number with a tolerance range for the correct answer?Numerical. It marks an answer correct if it falls within a set range, so small rounding differences are accepted.
Which Moodle question type lets students fill blanks inside a passage of text?Cloze. Answer fields are embedded directly in the paragraph, which suits fill-in-the-gap questions.
Which Moodle question type pairs items from one list with items from another?Matching. Students select the correct partner for each item, which works well for terms and definitions.
Which Moodle question type requires a long written response that a teacher marks by hand?Essay. It accepts free-text answers of any length, so the response cannot be graded automatically.
Where do you import a Moodle XML file of questions?The question bank, using Import and the Moodle XML format. The questions can then be added to any quiz in the course.
Generate the full set

Questions from your material

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. The generator writes questions based only on what you provided.

Explanations for every answer

Each multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer question includes an explanation, so students learn why an answer is right or wrong.

Moodle XML export

Export your questions as Moodle XML and import them into a Moodle question bank. QTI 2.1 export is also available on Pro.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, slide deck, Word file, text file or photo of a page from your course material.

Choose the question types

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

Export to Moodle

Download Moodle XML on the Pro plan, then import it through your Moodle question bank and add the questions to a quiz.

Moodle organizes quizzes around a question bank, so questions you create once can be reused across several quizzes and course sections. Generating that bank from your actual material keeps the questions tied to what you taught.

Review every generated question before importing it. Check that the wording matches your course terms and that the correct answer is marked accurately.
