Description
As quantum technology improves, quantum information science is becoming a topic of increasing interest. High schools are starting to think about how to incorporate these ideas into existing and new courses. We are a team of college and high school educators with backgrounds in physics, education, chemistry, and computer science who have come together to design a middle-high school QIS course. The course is aimed at students with a range of backgrounds and interests with no pre-requisites. The team has taken a case study approach to building the curriculum where the content will be learned through discussion of different quantum technologies. The material will also be aligned with benchmarks in science and engineering practice as well as chemistry, physics, and computer science. We will present the draft plan for the course and are very interested in feedback from the community as it moves forward.
