What is it?

The University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) has created five lesson plans for senior (12th grade) high-school Physics classes, including introductions to superposition, wave-particle duality, the uncertainty principle, quantum computing, and quantum cryptography. These lessons have been developed in collaboration between IQC researchers and physics educators and are designed to fit into 90-minute classroom sessions. Teacher guides and student worksheets are available, and professional development is offered annually through their Schrödinger’s Class workshop.

How can you use it?

While the teaching resources are available free of charge, a short form is required to be filled out before you are able to download the lessons and access the activities.
