Convert a Word document into an online quiz with automated key detection

Download standardized format templates

To ensure flawless extraction accuracy, download our pre-formatted .docx templates. Each template models standard question numbering, choice separation, and answer key designations.

Structure the Word document specifications

Each question starts with standard numbering ("Question 1." or "1."). Place choices on separate lines ("A.", "B.", "C.", "D."). The parser supports three answer key conventions: (1) An "Answer: B" line below the item; (2) An asterisk prefix on the correct option (*B. Paris); or (3) Red font formatting on the correct choice. Solutions are designated via an "Explanation:" prefix. Appended answer key blocks (e.g. "ANSWER KEY: 1.B 2.A...") are also parsed.

Question 1. What is the capital of France?
A. Lyon
*B. Paris
C. Nice
D. Lille
Answer: B
Explanation: Paris is the capital of France.

Question 2. The Earth orbits the Sun.
A. True
B. False
Answer: A

Question 3. The capital of Japan is [[Tokyo]].

Tip: Tiered question banks utilizing cognitive tags like [<DE>], [<TB>], [<KH>] are supported, recognizing keys formatted in bold, underlined, or colored text.

Structure reading passages, gap-fills, and matching matrices

Wrap shared reading texts between [PASSAGE] and [END PASSAGE] tags. Fill-in-the-blank gaps are indicated with double square brackets [[keyword]]. For matching items, insert a standard two-column table matching keys row by row.

[PART 1: READING]
[PASSAGE] Cognitive Benefits of Reading
Reading regularly expands lexical range and sharpens cognitive focus.

A. Fatigue

[END PASSAGE]

Question 5. Match countries with respective capitals:
| Vietnam | Hanoi |
| Japan   | Tokyo |

Tip: Do not start paragraphs within passage blocks with number prefixes like "1." or "Question 1." to avoid triggering accidental question delineation.

Structure Listening, Writing, and Speaking tasks

Enclose listening units between [LISTENING] and [END LISTENING], declaring properties: "Audio: filename.mp3" and "Plays: 1". Once the document uploads, attach the corresponding audio file inside the editor.

[LISTENING] Section 1
Audio: exam-audio.mp3
Plays: 2
Instructions: Write ONE WORD AND/OR A NUMBER.
Price: £[[120]]
[END LISTENING]

Tip: Embedded illustrations, graphs, and tables are extracted and bound automatically to their respective question blocks.

Upload and process the Word document

In the setup modal, choose "Import from Word". Drag and drop the .docx file into the drop zone or browse local storage, then select "Import questions". The parser processes and appends the content into the editor buffer.

Audit live preview and commit assessment

The engine confirms total parsed items. The interactive preview pane confirms item layout and verified answer keys. Audit the assessment for pedagogical fidelity and select "Save Quiz".

Tip: If any item lacks an identified answer key, an advisory banner appears on top, allowing immediate assignment of asterisk prefixes before saving.
