Turn your own general knowledge notes into a pub quiz round
Upload a PDF, slides or notes and DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions with explanations you can check before quiz night.
Why write your own pub quiz round
Vauxhall quiz nights tend to reward hosts who mix history, geography, science and pop culture, and a pub quiz round built from your own reference material keeps the questions accurate and on theme.
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions from your own files
- Explanations for each answer so you can settle disputes quickly
- Study in the browser on the free plan with 3 generations per month
- PDF and DOCX export on Plus, plus QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Questions from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages and get questions based on what you provided.
Several question types
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, each with an explanation to help you settle answers on the night.
Export when you need it
PDF and DOCX exports come with Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML exports come with Pro.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slide deck, document or notes on the general knowledge topics you want to cover.
Pick the question type
Select multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions for your round.
Review and run the round
Check the questions and explanations, then export to PDF or DOCX on Plus or read them straight from the screen.
If you want a ready-made printable quiz, you can find one in a general knowledge book or online, but a round written from your own notes lets you match the difficulty of your crowd and the topics you care about. DeckOwl reads your files and writes questions with explanations so you can check every answer before the night.
Questions can be reviewed and edited in the browser, and the free plan includes 3 generations per month, so you can test the format before you commit to a paid plan.
