This presentation shows how to export data from Quizlet and import it into Moodle. Since Quizlet does not allow you to track student progress in a gradebook, this option, via http://pin13.net/quizlet/ is very helpful and quick. It's easy but complicated.

2. Learn. Practice. Assess.
Is it possible to take list
words or more and make
learning, practice, and
assessment materials in
under 10 minutes?
What used to take me
about an hour, can now
be done in 5 minutes.
3. After you’ve taken some time to
explore your Quizlet account
and added a few sets or
created them from scratch, let’s
try some things.
4. 1. Export your card set.
After selecting a card set from
“Your Sets and Classes,” select
Export in the More Tools
dropdown menu located on the
far right.
5. 1. Export your card set.
Choose “select all” in the Data
section. This will keep the data
in your clipboard, the place
your computer keeps that last
thing you copied.
The options should be set to
“Tab” and “New Line.”
6. 2. Convert the content to Gift format.
Go to http://pin13.net/quizlet/ and paste the Quizlet export data into the
text box.
7. 2. Convert the content to Gift format.
Choose format options.
8. 2. Convert the content to Gift format.
Select “Download in a file.” I like to save to desktop so it’s easier to drag and
drop into the dashed-line box in Moodle.
9. 3. Import the file into Moodle.
Now that you have the data converted to a Gift format, you are ready to import
into Moodle. I like to set up the category in Moodle before importing so the
questions are organized immediately (not shown below).
10. 3. Import the file into Moodle.
Either choose a file from your computer or other storage, and click “import” to
begin. I like to drag and drop because it saves a few clicks, which can be
helpful when mistakes are made.
11. 4. Check the success.
If the import includes all the questions or words/definitions, chances are very
good that all went as planned.
12. 4. Check the question bank.
Organize your questions into specific categories on this page. This is also a
good time to check settings and preview questions to make sure the formatting
doesn’t cause any problems.
13. Thank You!
This is one (quick) way to
do it. I also like importing
using the Aiken format --
