Description
Quantum physics offers numerous technological applications, yet their complexity poses challenges for teaching secondary-level students. Quantum cryptography, grounded in fundamental quantum principles, presents a contemporary and accessible subject. This study investigates the impact of teaching quantum cryptography as part of the Discipline-Culture approach. We analyse the responses of 12th-grade students to open questions and final test problems to gauge their understanding of the principles of quantum physics and their motivation. Our results show that students succeed in applying the core concepts of quantum physics to new quantitative problem-solving and that teaching quantum cryptography induced motivation for learning quantum physics.
