Practical guide to moving your quiz library from Edmodo, Kahoot, Quizlet, Word, or PDFs into a free tool you actually own. Written by a teacher.
Edmodo shut down in September 2022. If you were on it, you had six months to export your library — and the export was a JSON file that no other platform accepted. A lot of teachers lost significant work in that window.
Kahoot teachers face a milder version of the same problem: your sets live inside one account, and if you leave the district or lose the login, they're gone. Quizlet Plus users hit it when the subscription lapses. Google Forms teachers hit it when Workspace access changes.
This post is the practical guide to bringing your teaching library with you — regardless of what you built it in. It's what I wish I'd had in September 2022.
Vendors have no incentive to make export easy. It's not malice; it's business. The lock-in is the moat.
Regardless of where your material lives today, it reduces to one of four shapes:
The good news: if you have your material in any of the first three formats, you can get it into a modern tool. CSV is the universal donor — if you're stuck, converting to CSV first is always a valid escape hatch.
If you still have your Edmodo export sitting in a Google Drive folder from 2022:
Nothing goes public until you press the "Publish" button on each item. The private-drafts step exists specifically because bulk imports always contain some garbage, and you don't want that garbage under your name.
Kahoot lets you export any set as an .xlsx spreadsheet (right-click the kahoot → Export results / Export questions, depending on your plan).
One caveat for math teachers: Kahoot's quiz-show format doesn't preserve the visual math (fractions render as `1/2` in plain text, exponents disappear, systems of equations get flattened). If what you actually want out of that old Kahoot set is a proper printable worksheet — with LaTeX-rendered math, DOK-tagged problems, worked step-by-step solutions, and an answer key — the Math Problem Set Generator is built for exactly that. Feed it your topic ("adding fractions with unlike denominators", "systems of equations by substitution") and it'll produce a real worksheet you can print. It's a rebuild, not a direct import, but often that's what you actually wanted anyway.
Direct Kahoot import is on the roadmap. If you'd like it prioritized, click the "Kahoot — coming soon" chip on `/import` — it logs a demand signal, and whichever source gets the most clicks gets built next.
If your material is sitting in a Word doc, PDF, or even a forwarded email:
This path works best for structured content — question-and-answer format, numbered lists, headings that mark different assessments. It works worst for free-form text like lesson notes, essays, or pedagogy write-ups. That's not a bug; it's the nature of unstructured text. If you find yourself trying to import essay-format material, you're probably not looking for the import tool — you're looking for the quiz generator, which builds fresh questions from a topic.
Three things worth doing in the first week:
I don't want to oversell this. Here's what tends to break:
If your import comes back mostly garbage, don't spend an hour fixing it card by card. Delete everything, and either use the plain-text paste path with a smaller chunk, or generate fresh from the topic using one of the tools directly.
Every imported item lands as a private draft, visible only to you. Nothing publishes to the public library until you press "Publish" on each individual item. AssessmentWiz doesn't sell teacher data or train language models on your assessments.
The import handler logs shape mismatches so we can add support for new formats. If your file fails, send us the export (redact anything sensitive first) via the contact form at /contact?category=bug — we'll either add a parser or tell you exactly how to reshape it. Kahoot and Quizlet parsers are on the roadmap; the demand-signal chips on /import decide the priority order.
Not directly yet — Google Classroom doesn't expose a first-class quiz export. The current best path: open the underlying Google Form in Sheets → export as CSV → upload the CSV at /import. Native Classroom integration is on the roadmap.
Yes. Every assessment you own has an export button — CSV or printable PDF. Zero lock-in on our end. If you leave, you leave with your work.
No — Edmodo took the servers offline in September 2022, and the export window closed then. If you didn't download at the time, that material is unrecoverable. This workflow is for teachers who have their old export files sitting in a folder somewhere, or who are on Kahoot/Quizlet/Word today and want to migrate before the same thing happens again.
