Why build a quiz from your own slides

A PPT quiz generator works from the exact slides your instructor used, so the questions match the terms, diagrams and examples you will see on the exam. Generic quiz banks often cover a different sequence of topics than your lecture did.

Questions are based on the slides you upload, not a generic topic list
Multiple choice, true/false and short answer formats in one quiz
Explanations appear with each answer to reinforce the reasoning
Free plan includes 3 generations per month; Plus removes the limit

Example cell biology quiz questions from lecture slides

Which organelle produces most of a eukaryotic cell's ATP?The mitochondrion. It houses the electron transport chain and ATP synthase, which drive most of cellular respiration's ATP production.

True or false: prokaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus.False. Prokaryotes lack a membrane-bound nucleus, so their DNA sits in an irregular region called the nucleoid.

What is the main function of the Golgi apparatus?It modifies, sorts and packages proteins and lipids into vesicles so they reach their correct destinations.

Why does a cell swell when placed in a hypotonic solution?The solution outside has a lower solute concentration than the cytoplasm, so water moves into the cell by osmosis.

What is the role of ribosomes in protein synthesis?Ribosomes read mRNA sequences and link amino acids into a polypeptide chain, which is called translation.

Generate the full set

Reads your slides

PPTX files are read directly, including the bullet text, titles and speaker-note content that sits in the deck.

Mixed question types

Choose multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions, or combine them in one quiz.

Explanations on every answer

Each question comes with a short explanation of why the correct answer is right, so wrong answers become study points.

How it works

Add a PPTX file, a PDF export of the slides, or pasted notes. Photos of printed slides also work.

Pick the question types

Upload the deck and DeckOwl reads the slide text and the notes attached to it. You can then choose multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions, and each one includes an explanation you can review after answering.

Teachers can use the same workflow to draft a check for understanding from their own presentation. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for course platforms.

Frequently asked questions

How do I turn lecture slides into good quiz questions?

Focus on the definitions, processes and cause-and-effect statements on each slide, then write one question per key idea. Avoid questions that can be answered by recognizing a familiar phrase alone.

How many questions should a quiz cover for one slide deck?

Start with about one question for every two or three content slides, then adjust based on how long the deck is and how much time you have. Mix easy recall items with a few questions that require applying the idea.

Can I export the quiz to Moodle?

Moodle XML export is part of the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month.

Is it free to upload a PowerPoint file?

The free plan allows 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no credit card needed to start. Unlimited generations are part of the Plus plan, and students get 40% off with a school email.
