What DeckOwl does and doesn't do for a website quiz

Teachers and course builders often search for a quiz maker to embed on a website, and the honest answer is that DeckOwl does not produce embed codes. What it does is read your lecture notes, slides or PDFs and write the questions, so you start from your own material rather than a blank page.

Example iframe and quiz embedding questions

What HTML element loads another web page inside the current page?An iframe. It places a separate document in a frame, so the quiz can sit on your site without copying its code.

Why should an iframe source use https when your page is served over https?Browsers block insecure content on secure pages, so an http frame can fail to load.

Which iframe attributes set the size of the embedded area?The width and height attributes. They set the frame dimensions, and CSS can adjust them further for layout.

What does the sandbox attribute on an iframe do?It restricts what the embedded content can do, such as running scripts or submitting forms, unless you allow those actions. This limits risk from third-party content.

Why should an embedded quiz use a percentage width instead of a fixed pixel width?Visitors use many screen sizes, and a fixed-width frame can overflow on phones. A percentage width lets the quiz resize with the page.

Quizzes from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages and get questions written from that content, each with an explanation.

Study in the browser

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, so you can test the questions before deciding anything else.

Export for your platform

Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for course platforms.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or photo of a page.

Generate and review

Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer and check each explanation before you use it.

Study or export

Study in the browser on the free plan, or export on Plus or Pro to move the quiz into your hosting platform.

If you need the quiz to live on your site, the practical path is to generate it here, review each question, then move it into the platform that hosts your page. Plus users can export PDF or DOCX copies, and Pro users can also export QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML.

Embedding is mostly a hosting question, so the question format matters as much as the tool. Multiple-choice and true/false items with clear explanations tend to work well in a frame, because learners can answer and read feedback without leaving the page.

Frequently asked questions

Does DeckOwl give me embed code for a quiz?

No. DeckOwl creates quizzes from your material and lets you study them in the browser on the free plan. Exports are a paid feature, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for course platforms.

What is the difference between an iframe and a link for hosting a quiz?

An iframe shows another page inside your own page, while a link sends visitors to a separate page. Links are simpler and more reliable, and iframes suit content you want to keep visually on your site.

How many questions should a practice quiz have?

Five to ten focused questions work well for checking a single topic, and longer quizzes suit full chapters. Shorter quizzes make it easier to review each explanation after an attempt.

Is there a free way to try it before paying?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month, and no credit card is needed to start. Students can get 40% off with a school email.
