Title: Teaching Quantum Computing: An approach accessible to high school and beginning college students
Quantum Computing can appear obscure to students at the high school and college level due to its abstract nature and unfamiliar formalism. In this talk we describe an approach which makes the field accessible to students with typical high school physics and mathematics backgrounds while still teaching the fundamental quantum computing and quantum information science basics and algorithm architecture. The authors bring both quantum and pedagogical expertise to their book, Quantum Computing: From Alice to Bob, which implements this unique approach to teaching quantum computing,
