Disparities in access to US quantum information education
Josephine C. Meyer, Gina Passante, Bethany R. Wilcox
Driven in large part by the National Quantum Initiative Act of 2018, quantum information science (QIS) coursework and degree programs are rapidly spreading across US institutions.…
Introductory quantum information science coursework at US institutions: Content coverage
Josephine C. Meyer, Gina Passante, Steven J. Pollock +1
Despite rapid growth of quantum information science and engineering (QIS/QISE) workforce development initiatives, perceived lack of agreement among faculty on core content has made…
Comparing introductory and beyond-introductory students' reasoning about uncertainty
Emily M. Stump, Mark Hughes, Gina Passante +1
Uncertainty is an important concept in physics laboratory instruction. However, little work has examined how students reason about uncertainty beyond the introductory (intro) level…
Context affects student thinking about sources of uncertainty in classical and quantum mechanics
Emily M. Stump, Matthew Dew, Gina Passante +1
Measurement uncertainty is an important topic in the undergraduate laboratory curriculum. Previous research on student thinking about experimental measurement uncertainty has focus…
How media hype affects our physics teaching: A case study on quantum computing
Josephine C. Meyer, Gina Passante, Steven J. Pollock +1
Popular media is an unspoken yet ever-present element of the physics landscape and a tool we can utilize in our teaching. It is also well-understood that students enter the physics…
Investigating student interpretations of the differences between classical and quantum computers: Are quantum computers just analog classical computers?
Josephine C. Meyer, Gina Passante, Steven J. Pollock +1
Significant attention in the PER community has been paid to student cognition and reasoning processes in undergraduate quantum mechanics. Until recently, however, these same topics…
