Turning your own notes into Quizizz-style quizzes

Students who search for a particular Quizizz quiz by Zahra Hidayat usually want practice questions on one topic, not a specific copy of someone else's quiz. DeckOwl cannot pull up another person's quiz, but it can turn your own class notes or slides into a quiz with explanations that covers the same material.

Questions come from your own files, so the quiz matches what your instructor covered.
Every multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer item includes an explanation.
Photos of pages are read with text recognition, so handwritten-to-print notes can be used.
PDF and DOCX export are available on Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro.

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer

Each quiz mixes question types, and every answer comes with an explanation of why it is right.

Built from your material

Questions come from the files you upload, so the quiz matches your course, not a generic bank.

Study in the browser

The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and browser study. Paid plans add exports.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page. Photos are read with text recognition.

Choose a question type

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

Answer, check and retry

Work through each question, read the explanation, then retry the ones you missed.

Start with the source you already have, such as a lecture PDF or a page of handwritten notes photographed on your phone. Answer each question before reading its explanation, and retry missed items a day or two later, which helps recall stick better than rereading.
