Quantum Opportunities for Teachers

SUMMER 2024 Dates were June 18-27, 2024.

Quantum for All supports high school teachers who want to embed quantum concepts, that do NOT rely on advanced mathematics, in their curriculum. By providing mentors, equipment, and opportunities to "practice" what they have learned with other peers, our project is built to develop confidence and expand knowledge of quantum information science principles.

The topics for 2024 followed a historical approach and included:

Atomic Structure: particles, cloud chambers, quantum states
Quantization: Photoelectric effect, wave particle duality, quantum dots
Heisenberg Principle: superposition, Malus Law, Stern Gerlach
Randomness: radioactive decay, encryption, tunneling

2023 Topics Included:

Quantum levitation (engineering design project will start with mag lev)
Quantized energy states
Laser Cooling and Heisenberg
Cybersecurity and Information Transmission
Quantum Sensors
Quantum Applications
