How to turn a video into a Quizlet-style quiz

Most people looking for a way to go from video to Quizlet want to test themselves on a lecture they just watched. DeckOwl does not take video files, so start with what the video gives you: a transcript, the instructor's slides, or your own notes.

  • Works from transcripts, slides, PDFs, DOCX files, and photos of pages
  • Multiple-choice, true/false, and short-answer questions
  • Each question includes an explanation of the correct answer
  • Exports to PDF, DOCX, and Anki on Plus, plus QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
