Why a Mentimeter-style quiz works for review

Trainers and teachers who run live polls often need a Mentimeter quiz maker that starts from their own slides rather than a blank form. Writing good questions by hand takes time, especially when the same material has to be checked in several sessions.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions from one upload
Explanations written for each answer
Browser study on the free plan, with exports on paid plans
Edit or drop any question before you run the session

Example Mentimeter question types and answers

Which Mentimeter question type lets participants put options in order of preference?Ranking. Participants arrange the items in the order they prefer, so the results show the full order rather than a single choice.

What is a word cloud question in Mentimeter best used for?Collecting short one-word responses from the room. Repeated answers appear larger, so common ideas stand out at a glance.

What does Mentimeter's quiz mode add to a standard poll?Correct answers and scoring. Participants earn points for right answers, which turns a poll into a scored round with a leaderboard.

Which Mentimeter question type collects free-text answers?Open-ended. Participants type their own response, which suits explanations and opinions that a fixed set of options cannot capture.

What is the Scales question type useful for?Measuring degree, such as confidence or agreement. Participants move a slider between two ends, which gives a more detailed picture than yes or no.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a good multiple-choice question for a live poll?

A good question has one clearly correct answer and plausible distractors that reflect common misunderstandings. Keep the wording short so everyone can read it on screen within a few seconds.

How many questions should a quick classroom quiz have?

Five to ten questions usually fit a short live round without losing attention. Longer sets work better for homework or self-study, where learners can pause and review.

Can I export my quiz to Moodle?

Moodle XML export is available on the Pro plan, which also includes QTI 2.1 export. PDF and DOCX export are on Plus, and the free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Is there a free plan to try the quiz maker?

Yes, the free plan includes three generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students can get 40 percent off Plus or Pro with a school email.
