Singh helped craft Quantum Information Science Core Concepts

Chandralekha Singh, professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and founding director of the Discipline-based Science Education Research Center, was one of 25 members of the working group charged with developing Quantum Information Science Core Concepts for Learners.

The initiative was spearheaded by the U.S. Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Science Foundation.

During a three-week virtual workshop, participants focused on identifying concepts that could, with additional supporting resources, help prepare secondary school students to engage with Quantum Information Science and provide possible pathways for broader public engagement

More details about the QIS core concepts developed by the working group can be found here and on the National Science Foundation website.
