Why build a quiz competition from your own material

Running a quiz competition works best when every question comes from material your players already studied. An online quiz competition built from your own slides or notes keeps the round focused, and DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions with an explanation for each answer.

  • Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions
  • Explanations for every answer, useful during review
  • Question sets built only from your uploaded material
  • PDF and DOCX export on Plus; QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Example competition economics quiz questions
What are the four main market structures studied in microeconomics?Perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly and monopoly. They differ in the number of sellers and how much control each has over price.
In a perfectly competitive market, is a single firm a price maker or a price taker?Price taker. Each firm is small relative to the market, so it must accept the going market price.
What does the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index measure?Market concentration, calculated by summing the squared market shares of firms. Higher values indicate less competition.
True or false: a monopoly faces no competition from substitute goods.False. A monopolist has no direct rivals, but substitutes can still limit its pricing power.
What does the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 prohibit?Contracts, combinations and conspiracies that restrain trade, and monopolization. It was the first major federal antitrust law in the United States.

Add a PDF, slides, a Word file or notes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer, then generate the question set.

Review and export

Check the questions and explanations, then export the quiz for your round if you are on a paid plan.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a classroom quiz competition have?

Most rounds work well with 10 to 20 questions, so each team can answer in a reasonable amount of time. Mixing question types keeps the round from feeling repetitive.

How do I write good wrong answers for a competition quiz?

Make each wrong option plausible and close in length to the correct one. Avoid options like all of the above, which give away the answer.

Can I export a quiz to Moodle?

Yes, Moodle XML export is included in the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus.

Is there a free plan?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but exports are not included. Plus is $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
