Forms\u2019 smart conversion turns your file into an online quiz that\u2019s ready to distribute to students. Smart conversion also works with surveys and other paperwork that you might want to distribute\u2014like semester surveys, parent feedback forms, or exit tickets. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/education\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/02-Microsoft-Forms-smart-conversion.gif\" alt=\"GIF showing how to import files into Microsoft Forms and create an online quiz in seconds: the user uploads a document, and Forms quickly converts the content into quiz questions.\" class=\"wp-image-2208\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Import files into Forms and create an online quiz in seconds.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After the quiz is generated, you will have several theme suggestions to choose from.
