Making a Quizizz-style quiz from YouTube content

Studying from a lecture video sticks better when you test yourself on it, and a YouTube Quizizz style quiz is one way to do that. DeckOwl does not pull videos directly, so paste the transcript or your own notes as text instead.

Paste a transcript as plain text or upload notes, slides or PDFs.
Generate multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions.
Read the explanation after each answer, whether you were right or wrong.
Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro.

Example Roman Empire quiz questions

Which title did the Senate grant Octavian in 27 BCE?Augustus. It marked him as the first emperor while he kept republican forms of office.

True or false: the Western Roman Empire fell in 476 CE.True. The general Odoacer deposed Romulus Augustulus in 476, which is traditionally taken as the end of the Western Empire.

What was the Pax Romana?A roughly two-century period from 27 BCE to about 180 CE of relative peace and stability, which supported trade across the empire.

What system did Diocletian set up to share rule of the empire?The Tetrarchy, a system of four rulers from 293 CE, because one emperor could not govern and defend such a large territory.

Any source format

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Paste a video transcript as text when that is your source.

Explained answers

Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions each come with an explanation of the correct answer.

Study or export

Study in the browser on the free plan. PDF and DOCX export come with Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML with Pro.

How it works

Paste or upload

Add a video transcript as plain text, or upload your notes, slides or a PDF.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions for the material.

Review and study

Check the explanations, then study in the browser or export if you are on a paid plan.

Once the text is in, choose multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions. Each one includes an explanation, so a wrong answer teaches you why the right one is correct instead of just marking it.

Transcripts are often long and wander, so trim filler before generating. Keep the questions that match the points you need to remember, and generate a new quiz when you add new material.

Frequently asked questions

How many quiz questions should I make for the Roman Empire?

Start with 10 to 15 questions per session so you can cover the main periods, such as the late Republic, the Pax Romana and the Late Empire. Shorter sessions spread over several days tend to stick better than one long quiz.

What is the best way to study Roman Empire dates and emperors?

Group facts into timelines and test the order of events, not just isolated names. Short-answer questions help you recall dates without seeing options.
