Speaker

Rutger Ockhorst

Description

Advancements in quantum sensing and quantum computing are expected to impact many levels of society. This raises the need for a quantum ready workforce. In response, we have written three lesson modules on quantum technology to foster interest and increase awareness among upper secondary school students. This poster presentation explains the procedure followed in writing these materials and highlights a lesson module on the use of NV centers as a context for teaching quantum computation and quantum sensing.
