- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076), aims to integrate quantum concepts and technologies into middle school science lessons. The $299,934 award to Purdue University will develop and pilot interactive educational materials, including simulations and hands-on activities, to make abstract quantum principles accessible and engaging for approximately 1,040 students per year across...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), aims to expand K-12 quantum education research into elementary classrooms. The two-year, $156,000 award to George Mason University will engage 10 elementary teachers and over 400 elementary students in quantum learning experiences. The project will study how elementary teachers and students learn quantum science concepts, identify the knowledge base required, and...
- This $399,908 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to develop an innovative and much-needed quantum sensing (QS) curriculum and education roadmap for undergraduate engineering students. The project involves collaboration between the Colorado School of Mines, University of California Davis, and MITRE, and will create a portable QS curricular module for incorporation into quantum courses across a variety of engineering...
- This $175,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University's "Catalyst Project" to broaden participation in quantum information science and engineering. The University will utilize culturally relevant pedagogy and experiential learning activities combined with industry partnerships from IBM, Google, and local start-ups to examine approaches for increasing...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $498,945 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to the University of Pittsburgh to develop research-based educational materials to prepare undergraduate students for the "Second Quantum Revolution". The materials will include Quantum Interactive Learning Tutorials (QUILTS) and peer-instruction tools focused on quantum information science and technology (QIST) concepts such as quantum...
- This $1.3 million Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the QUEST: Quantum Education for Students and Teachers initiative led by Stony Brook University. QUEST aims to advance quantum education, physical science literacy, and STEM diversity through quantum science and computing learning opportunities for precollege students in grades 8-12 and their secondary science teachers. Over the four-year period from July 2022 to June 2026, the...
- This $224,785 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development of a toolkit of K-12 quantum science frameworks and learning progressions. The project, titled "QUANTUM IN THE MIDDLE: QUANTUM PROGRESSIONS FROM ELEMENTARY TO HIGH SCHOOL", aims to engage 2,000 K-12 students and 10 teachers in learning complex quantum concepts across STEM disciplines. The research team at George Mason University will work with...
- This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $1,987,547 to the University of Chicago to develop a comprehensive learning ecosystem focused on introducing middle school students to quantum information science (QIS). The key products and services funded include: Development and delivery of professional development training for over 1,000 informal educators to enable them to comfortably lead QIS-related activities with students....
This $300,000 EAGER Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) Federal Grant Program. The project aims to curate, develop, and disseminate ready-to-use quantum learning materials, and support cohorts of educators in every state to develop quantum information science and engineering (QISE) knowledge. The central feature is a "Quantum-in-a-Box" initiative inspired by public and private STEM outreach programs, which will introduce tens of thousands of pre-college students to QISE topics, applications, and career information. The project leverages the National Q-12 Education Partnership to facilitate multi-sector collaboration on developing the domestic quantum-ready workforce. The award was granted to Duke University's Office of Research Administration Division and will be performed in Durham, North Carolina, with an anticipated completion date of August 31, 2027.
