Teaching Quantum Computing to High School Students
Hughes, Ciaran; Isaacson, Joshua; Turner, Jessica; Perry, Anastasia; Sun, Ranbel
Physics Teacher, v60 n3 p187-189 Mar 2022
Quantum computing is a growing field at the intersection of physics and computer science. The goal of this article is to highlight a successfully trialled quantum computing course for high school students between the ages of 15 and 18 years old. This course was designed to bridge the gap between popular science articles and advanced undergraduate textbooks. Conceptual ideas in the text are reinforced with active learning techniques, such as interactive problem sets and simulation-based labs at various levels. The course is freely available for use and download under the Creative Commons "Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International" license.
