✨ Streamlining SLS Quiz Creation with DeepSeek and Authoring Co-Pilot (ACP)
Creating well-structured quizzes in the Student Learning Space (SLS) can be time-consuming—especially when converting from PDF question banks. This blog post demonstrates a powerful workflow using DeepSeek’s advanced Chain-of-Thought model in tandem with SLS Authoring Co-Pilot (ACP) to speed up quiz generation while maintaining quality and accuracy.
🔍 Step-by-Step: From PDF to SLS Quiz
🧠 Step 1: Uploading the Source Document
Start by clicking Start Now on DeepSeek. Upload a PDF, such as the SAA Level Physics Specimen Paper 1, which is publicly available. Ensure all PDFs used are either in the public domain or open resource.
🎯 Prompt Example:
“Convert the 30 questions in the PDF into plain text formatted for LMS import.”
DeepSeek’s output cleanly parses the questions and answers—far superior to manual copy-paste—preserving structure, layout, and reducing the need for reformatting.
✅ Step 2: Review and Validate the AI Output
While DeepSeek does an excellent job, human review is essential:
-
✅ Questions 1–10 were nearly identical to the original.
-
⚠️ Question 4 included a diagram which DeepSeek could not reproduce.
-
⚠️ Question 12 misinterpreted context and skipped content (e.g. missing ABCD diagram).
🔧 Tip:
Snip missing diagrams manually and upload them in SLS during the editing phase.
🧱 Step 3: Paste into SLS Knowledge Base
Once the output is validated:
-
Copy a block of questions (e.g. 1–10).
-
Go to SLS → Add Knowledge Base.
-
Paste into the content field.
-
Provide Additional Details to guide ACP—e.g.:
“Generate 10 MCQs from these questions. Remove labels A/B/C/D in options.”
🛠 Step 4: Generate and Structure with ACP
-
Use the Generate button at the question level to create Q11–Q20, and so on.
-
Always specify number of questions, type (MCQ), and formatting preferences in additional instructions.
-
Check boxes for “Each question on a new component.”
🧩 Example Instruction:
“Generate 10 MCQs from the knowledge base. Each should have 4 options. Remove labels like 'A)', 'B)' before each choice.”
🔄 Step 5: Continue With Next Batches
To create Q21–Q30:
-
Click + (Add) → Generate.
-
Provide the updated knowledge base.
-
Repeat guidance steps for ACP.
💬 Step 6: Add Explanations & Feedback
Once questions are in place, you can use:
-
DeepSeek, Claude, or GPT-4 to generate step-by-step solutions.
-
Paste these solutions into Feedback fields in SLS for each question.
Ensure:
-
Equations are wrapped in LaTeX syntax.
-
Diagrams are uploaded manually via Snipping Tool.
-
Text formatting is consistent and coherent.
🧪 Human-in-the-Loop Is Still Key
Even with a powerful model:
-
ACP may misinterpret certain prompts or mix up numbering.
-
Some AI-generated questions may lack coherence or omit details.
-
Always review options, logic, and correct answers carefully.
