Modified on Wed, 5 Nov at 1:48 PM

TABLE OF CONTENTS



Wayground AI is a question generator that helps you create and enhance your Assessments quickly and easily.
By taking care of repetitive tasks, it lets you focus on what matters most — supporting every one of your students.

With this tool, you can create Assessments in minutes from multiple content sources.
Simply upload a file, enter a prompt, or paste a link to a webpage, and Wayground AI will generate questions from the content to build your Assessment/Quiz. You can then edit and enhance it as desired.


How it works

Wayground AI can generate Assessments/Quizzes in six different ways:

  • From a document: Upload study materials such as PDFs, PPTX, DOC, DOCX, PNG, or JPG files. Wayground AI will extract questions from the content.

  • From a prompt: Type or paste any content or prompt, and Wayground AI will generate relevant questions.

  • From a website: Paste the link to a webpage, and Wayground AI will process its contents to create an Assessment.

  • From a curriculum: For math and science teachers in the USA, simply select your desired curriculum to generate aligned Assessments.

  • From a YouTube video: Search for or paste a YouTube link to generate questions related to the video.

  • Upload an image: Use the Wayground mobile app to click and upload pictures of worksheets or documents to instantly generate questions.


Once generated, you can fully edit your Assessment — change question types, modify answer options, and add images, videos, or audio.


You can also use Wayground AI Enhance to customize your Assessments for accessibility, engagement, and inclusivity.
