Online quiz tools for teachers that start from your own lesson files
Upload a unit handout, a slide deck or your own notes and get a ready-to-use quiz with explanations for every answer, so you spend less evening time writing questions.
Why teachers look for a quiz tool that starts from their own material
A good set of online quiz tools for teachers should save time without pulling you away from what you actually taught. Writing a fresh quiz after every unit means working through the same handouts and slides again, and generic question banks rarely match the vocabulary or examples used in your room.
- Start from PDFs, slides, DOCX files or notes instead of a generic question bank.
- Mix multiple-choice, true/false and open questions in one quiz.
- Review explanations before assigning a quiz to your class.
- Export to PDF or DOCX, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on the Pro plan.
Three question types
Generate multiple-choice, true/false or open questions from the same material, so you can mix quick checks with questions that ask for reasoning.
Explanations on every item
Each question includes an explanation of the correct answer, which you can keep for review or hand out to students after the quiz.
Export to your system
Download quizzes as PDF or DOCX on the Plus plan, and as QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on the Pro plan for your learning management system.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page. Photos are read with text recognition.
Choose question types
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and set the quiz up for the lesson you are teaching.
Review and export
Edit any question you want to change, then study in the browser or export the quiz to the format your school uses.
Starting from your own files keeps the quiz aligned with the lesson. Multiple-choice items check recall quickly, true/false items catch misconceptions, and open questions show whether students can explain a process in their own words. Reviewing the explanations before you assign the quiz helps you confirm each answer matches what you taught.
Use the quiz at different points in a unit: a short check at the start to see what students already know, a mid-unit check to find gaps, and a final quiz to confirm they can apply the material.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a classroom quiz include?
Most short classroom checks work well with five to ten questions that students can finish in about ten minutes. The right number depends on how long the lesson was and how much depth you want to assess.
Should I use multiple-choice or open questions on a quiz?
Use multiple-choice questions for quick checks of facts and vocabulary, and open questions when you need to see reasoning. Mixing both gives you a clearer picture of what students understand.
Can I export a generated quiz to my learning management system?
Yes. PDF and DOCX export is included on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export is on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. The free plan includes three generations per month and studying in the browser, and you do not need a credit card to start.
