Making practice questions by hand takes hours. Fileopia reads your notes or textbook chapter and generates fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice questions from the most important facts, with an answer key and page references. Teachers get a first draft of a test in seconds, and students get active-recall practice from their own material.
Common uses
- Revise a textbook chapter with 20 self-test questions.
- Create a quick classroom quiz from a lesson PDF.
- Build flash cards for exam preparation.
- Check understanding of a training manual or policy document.
Tips for best results
- Text-heavy material with facts, names and numbers produces the best questions.
- Mix multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank for variety.
