Why build your own quiz from class material

A Wayground-style quiz maker is most useful when the questions come from the lesson you just taught, not from a generic bank. Uploading your slides or notes lets the quiz target the exact terms, examples and misconceptions from your own material.

Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions in one generation
Explanations for every answer, so wrong choices teach something
Study in the browser on the free plan with 3 generations per month
Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, and to QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on Pro

Example classroom quiz questions with answers

Which question type best checks whether a student can explain why a result happened?An open short-answer question, because the student has to build the explanation rather than pick one from a list.

True or false: multiple-choice distractors should be obviously wrong to keep the quiz easy.False. Plausible distractors based on common misconceptions show whether a student truly understands the concept.

Which stem is clearer: "Mitochondria?" or "Which organelle is the main site of ATP production in cells?"The second. A complete stem tells students what is being asked before they read the options.

Why should answer options avoid "all of the above"?Students can guess by spotting one correct option, so the question measures test-taking habits instead of knowledge.

Why should each quiz question include an explanation?The explanation shows why the correct option is right and why the others are wrong, so a missed question becomes a lesson.

Generate the full set

Three question types

Generate multiple-choice, true/false or open short-answer questions from the same material, so you can mix formats in one review.

Explanations on every item

Each question includes a short explanation of the correct answer, so a wrong guess becomes a quick lesson.

Built from your own material

Questions come from the files you upload, so the quiz matches the topics you actually covered in class.

How it works

Upload your material

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

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and how many you want.

Review and study

Check the generated questions, then study in the browser or export on a paid plan.

Good review quizzes mix question types. Multiple-choice items check recognition, true/false items catch quick misreadings, and open questions show whether a student can explain a process in their own words. Explanations after each answer turn the quiz into a teaching tool.

Start with the free plan to test a few sets, then move to a paid plan if you need PDF, DOCX or LMS-ready exports for your class.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a classroom review quiz have?

Most review quizzes work well with 10 to 20 questions, which leaves time for discussion of the explanations. Shorter sets suit a single lesson, while longer sets fit a full unit review.

What makes a good multiple-choice distractor?

Distractors should match common student mistakes, so each wrong option reveals a specific misconception. Avoid options that are obviously wrong or that give away the answer through length or wording.

Can I export generated quizzes to other tools?

Yes, on paid plans: PDF and DOCX export come with Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export come with Pro. The free plan covers studying in the browser without exports.

Is there a free plan to try it first?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start.
