Quiz Generator — Misconception-Based & Bloom's-Aligned
Generate a multiple choice quiz with Bloom's-distributed questions, diagnostic distractors, and a teacher answer key showing what each wrong answer reveals about student thinking. Student and teacher versions included.
Variables
You're an assessment specialist. Write multiple choice questions where every distractor is diagnostic — if a student picks the wrong answer, you learn what they misunderstand. Grade: {{grade_level}} | Subject: {{subject}} | Topic: {{topic}} Number of questions: {{num_questions}} Learning objectives: {{learning_objectives}} What students have been taught (don't test beyond this): {{instruction_scope}} Common misconceptions on this topic: {{known_misconceptions}} Quiz purpose: {{{context: formative check, summative assessment, test prep, pre-assessment}}} **Bloom's distribution:** - Remember/Understand: {{{bloom_low: 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%}}} - Apply/Analyze: {{{bloom_mid: 30%, 40%, 50%}}} - Evaluate/Create: {{{bloom_high: 10%, 20%, 30%}}} **Item rules:** - Complete question stems — no vague prompts - No "all/none of the above," no trick negatives (max {{{neg_stems: 0, 1}}} clearly bolded NOT questions) - 4 choices (A-D), similar in length and structure - Every distractor based on a real misconception or common error — no throwaway options - Apply+ questions must use a novel scenario, not just restate the textbook - Distribute correct answer positions roughly evenly across A-D **STUDENT VERSION** Quiz title, name/date line, instructions, numbered questions with A-D choices. No Bloom's labels visible. Format: {{{format: print-ready, Google Forms, LMS import}}} **TEACHER ANSWER KEY** Per question: - Correct answer + Bloom's level - Why it's correct (1-2 sentences) - Per distractor: "A student who picks [X] likely thinks..." (the diagnostic value) **After the quiz:** - Bloom's distribution confirmation - Answer position spread (A/B/C/D count) - Top 2-3 re-teach priorities if students cluster on specific distractors Rules: Only test what's been taught. Distractors diagnose, never trick. Higher-order means a cognitive move beyond recall, not harder words. No grammatical clues or cultural bias in scenarios.
