Built for Curious Minds Across Canada

RotaryQuiz started as a small project with one goal: make the experience of testing your own knowledge genuinely enjoyable. We believe that curiosity is worth nurturing, and that a well-crafted quiz can be both informative and unexpectedly fun.

Team collaboration and learning

Our Mission & Approach

🎯

Clear Purpose

RotaryQuiz exists to give people a simple, reliable way to engage with knowledge across a wide range of topics. We're not trying to be everything — we aim to do quizzes well.

📚

Content Quality

Every question is written, reviewed, and fact-checked by our team. We prioritise accuracy, clarity, and appropriate difficulty over quantity.

🔒

Honest & Transparent

We're clear about what RotaryQuiz is: an educational and entertainment platform. We don't make unrealistic claims or use manipulative tactics to engage users.

🌱

Continuous Improvement

We regularly update and expand our question bank based on user feedback and emerging topics. The platform grows as our understanding of what users need grows.

Accessible Design

We design with accessibility in mind — good contrast, legible fonts, keyboard navigation, and fast load times so anyone can use RotaryQuiz regardless of device or ability.

🇨🇦

Proudly Canadian

Based on Salt Spring Island, BC, we're a small Canadian team. Our content reflects a global perspective, but our roots and values are local.

Research and content quality

Editorial Standards

Every question on RotaryQuiz goes through a defined review process before it's published. We want our users to trust that the information they encounter here is accurate and fair.

Our editorial approach includes:

  • Primary source verification for all factual claims
  • Peer review within the team before any content goes live
  • Regular audits of existing questions to catch outdated information
  • Clear, unambiguous answer options — no trick questions
  • Explanations that help users understand the reasoning, not just the answer

If you notice an error or have a suggestion, we genuinely want to hear from you. Use the contact form and we'll review it promptly.

Our Story So Far

RotaryQuiz didn't start with grand ambitions. It grew from a practical question: could a simple, well-designed quiz platform be both educational and genuinely engaging? Here's how we found out.

Early 2022

The Initial Idea

David Harrington, a former teacher with a background in educational psychology, began sketching a quiz system that would prioritise question quality and explanation over speed or competition.

Mid 2022

First Prototype

A working prototype with 30 general knowledge questions was tested with a small group of volunteers. Feedback shaped the core design principles that RotaryQuiz still follows today.

Early 2023

Team Expands

Mei-Lin Park joined to lead development, and Omar Tremblay came on board as a full-time content researcher. The question library grew to over 100 questions across five categories.

Late 2023

Public Launch

RotaryQuiz launched publicly at rotaryquiz.org with a full question bank, article library, and the logic and self-discovery quiz categories. Response from early users was encouraging and constructive.

2024 & Beyond

Ongoing Development

We continue to refine the platform, add new questions, and listen carefully to user feedback. Our goal is steady, thoughtful growth — not rapid expansion at the cost of quality.
