Description

A visit to Quantum Rules! at Leiden University allows secondary school students to appreciate the principles of quantum science and technology. We report the outcomes of quantitative research on the effect on students' perceptions of quantum science and technology, following the addition to the Quantum Rules! experience of a serious game that uncovers ways in which quantum is part of daily life.
