QOACH (Question Oriented Approach on Common Health) is an educational site providing accurate scientific data on health promotion through a simple question/message interface.

The system is focused on the user's ability to memorize data under randomized or topic-focused questions. As for learning a language, the user softly gets acquainted with healthy habits he is going to implement subconsciously.

[edit] History

QOACH was founded by Alexandre-Pierre Gaspar in 2007, after a year of research on the best possible cognitive approach for public health education. Alexandre-Pierre Gaspar's idea of a public oriented health system raised very early at the university, but after several attempts with the Minitel (the French Videotext system), he gave up the idea. In 2006, the birth of a social Internet opened new possibilities and the trade mark was created simply replacing the C of coach with a Q, standing for "question": QOACH is question-based, requesting the user's memory to train him with a good health attitude. Behind the scene, a non profit organization raised in 2007 to collect scientific information and start specifically needed studies on prevention and longevity, The Longevity Project.
