项目摘要

Quantum information science (QIS) is a rapidly growing area of research that can revolutionize many aspects of our lives. Recently, the United States government committed resources to ensure that the USA remains a QIS leader in both research and industry. This effort has led to a growing number of QIS education initiatives at institutions around the country. QIS education presents some unique challenges, as QIS is a diverse field that will draw students from many different disciplines, including physics, electrical and computer engineering, mathematics, and chemistry. These students will need to speak the common language of quantum mechanics (QM). While physics students will have had a QM course during their degree, many other students will not have this preparation. One of the award goals is to support students without prior quantum mechanics instruction in learning the QM concepts necessary for QIS. The second goal of this award is to increase the number of students who have the opportunity to learn about QIS by developing instructional materials instructors can use in their traditional quantum mechanics courses. Both of these efforts will be supported by research into student understanding.This award aims to support students without prior quantum mechanics instruction in learning the QM concepts necessary for QIS courses. The award will increase the number of students who can learn about QIS by developing instructional materials. The work utilizes existing models for the development and distribution of new and innovative curricular materials that can serve instructors' needs. The effectiveness of these materials will be established by direct assessment as an integrated part of their development and pilot implementation. The curricula materials developed by this project will facilitate the incorporation of QIS into existing courses. The materials will be produced at multiple institutions with a diverse population of students who better reflect the broader population. The advisory board for this award brings expertise in collaborative dissemination, content, industrial needs, pedagogy, and curriculum development. This knowledge will be used to ensure that the materials developed by this project are effectively designed and disseminated to ensure maximum impact on undergraduate and graduate physics and QIS programs.The Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE: EHR) program in NSF's Directorate for Education and Human Resources (EHR), Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE), is providing co-funding for this project in recognition of its contribution to improving the effectiveness of STEM education for college and university students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

量子信息科学（QIS）是一个快速发展的研究领域，可以彻底改变我们生活的许多方面。最近，美国政府承诺提供资源，以确保美国在研究和工业方面保持QIS的领导地位。这一努力导致全国各地的机构越来越多的QIS教育倡议。QIS教育提出了一些独特的挑战，因为QIS是一个多元化的领域，将吸引来自许多不同学科的学生，包括物理，电气和计算机工程，数学和化学。这些学生将需要讲量子力学（QM）的共同语言。虽然物理专业的学生在攻读学位期间会有QM课程，但许多其他学生不会有这种准备。该奖项的目标之一是支持学生在学习QIS所需的QM概念之前没有量子力学指导。该奖项的第二个目标是通过开发教师可以在传统量子力学课程中使用的教学材料来增加有机会了解QIS的学生数量。这两项工作都将得到学生理解研究的支持。该奖项旨在支持没有事先接受量子力学指导的学生学习QIS课程所需的QM概念。该奖项将增加学生谁可以通过开发教学材料了解QIS的数量。这项工作利用现有的模式，开发和分发新的和创新的课程材料，可以满足教师的需要。将通过直接评估确定这些材料的有效性，作为其开发和试点实施的一个组成部分。该项目编制的课程材料将有助于将质量信息系统纳入现有课程。这些材料将在多个机构制作，这些机构有不同的学生群体，他们更好地反映了更广泛的人口。该奖项的顾问委员会带来了合作传播，内容，工业需求，教学法和课程开发方面的专业知识。这些知识将用于确保本项目开发的材料得到有效设计和传播，以确保对本科生和研究生物理和QIS课程产生最大影响。（IUSE：EHR）计划在NSF的教育和人力资源局（EHR），本科教育部（DUE），提供了一个共同的，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识产权进行评估，被认为值得支持。优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
