Just Give AI the Topic
Still writing quizzes from scratch? Let AI do the heavy lifting.
Creating quality quizzes can take a lot of time, especially when you're aiming to vary question types, check for standards alignment, and differentiate for your students. By the time you’ve written, revised, and formatted everything, your prep period is already gone.
Here’s a better option: use AI to generate your quiz draft in seconds.
Just give it the topic, grade level, and type of questions you want. You’ll instantly get a solid starting point that you can tweak to fit your classroom needs.
Try this prompt in ChatGPT:
Create a 10-question multiple choice quiz on [your topic here] for [grade level]. Include an answer key. Vary the difficulty and align questions to common learning standards if possible.
Example:
Create a 10-question multiple choice quiz on the water cycle for 5th grade. Include an answer key. Vary the difficulty and align questions to common science standards.
Bonus Tip:
Don’t reinvent the wheel. You can revisit past conversations in your ChatGPT history by looking at the left-hand sidebar (on desktop) or tapping the menu icon (☰) on mobile. Scroll to find a previous prompt, click it to reopen, and instantly reuse or revise your earlier quiz.
Big Picture:
AI can’t replace your professional judgment, but it can give you a head start. Instead of spending time building assessments from scratch, you can focus on refining them and spending more time with students.
That’s it for this week.
P.S.
