AI Quiz Generator

What the quiz generator makes

Pick a source — a YouTube link, a PDF read in your browser, pasted text, or the first 5 minutes of a recording — and choose 5, 10 or 20 questions, the type and the difficulty. Multiple-choice questions have four options with one correct answer; true/false questions are statements the source makes clearly true or clearly false; short-answer questions expect a word, a number or a phrase of up to eight words. Mixed gives about half multiple choice and a quarter of each other type. Every question comes with a one- or two-sentence explanation taken from the material, and the questions are written in the language of the source.

Three ways to use the result

Take it one question at a time or all on one page. After each answer you see whether it was right and why. Short answers are checked with a forgiving comparison that ignores case, accents and small typos, and you can overrule the verdict. At the end you get the score, a list of your mistakes, a retake of only those questions, and a button that turns the mistakes into flashcards for spaced repetition.

For the teacher prints the test on A4 or US Letter with lines for name, date and score, and the answer key — with explanations if you want them — on a separate page, or the key alone.

Export writes Moodle GIFT, a CSV and plain text. In GIFT the characters ~ = # { } : are escaped with a backslash, true/false questions become {TRUE} or {FALSE}, short answers {=answer}, and each explanation becomes the question's general feedback, so the file imports into a Moodle question bank as it is. The CSV has one row per question with the options in separate columns and opens in Excel and Google Sheets.

What makes a good multiple-choice question?

A good item has one clearly correct answer, a stem that poses a definite problem on its own, and distractors that a student who has not learned the material would find plausible. The guide Writing Good Multiple Choice Test Questions from the Vanderbilt University Center for Teaching makes these points, and also advises keeping the options parallel and free of clues and avoiding "all of the above" and "none of the above".

Honest limits

The questions are written by free AI models and can contain mistakes: a wrong key, two defensible options, a question about something the source only hints at. Read the test before you hand it out — "Report a mistake" marks a question so you can find it again. The generator works from at least 200 and at most 60,000 characters of text and allows 10 generations a day on one device, shared with the flashcard generator. Your last ten quizzes stay in this browser only.
