Frequently Asked Questions for Educators
Clarifications on functionality, data handling, and academic integration.
How does the AI ensure the quiz questions are relevant to my university course level?
The AI utilizes advanced contextual understanding based on the source material you upload (e.g., PhD-level reading vs. 100-level textbook). You can also guide the AI by specifying the desired cognitive level, such as recall, application, or critical analysis, within your initial prompt.
What specific document formats can I upload for quiz generation?
We support comprehensive input formats for maximum flexibility, including standard PDF, Microsoft Word (.docx), PowerPoint (.pptx), and image files (like scanned notes or diagrams) that contain text.
Can I export the generated quiz directly into my Learning Management System (LMS)?
Yes, this is a core feature for educators. You can export quizzes in industry-standard formats such as QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML, ensuring easy import into Blackboard, Canvas, Moodle, or other academic platforms.
What is the difference between the free version and the paid plan for university use?
The free tier allows you to test the system's capabilities with limited generation credits. The paid plan unlocks higher limits on generation volume and grants access to our most advanced, context-aware AI model for creating highly nuanced, complex assessment items.
