Science integrated in education

QUARKS combines research and teaching and at the same time gives students an insight into the practical applications of quantum physics. Whether as an introduction or as a supplement – these modules are an opportunity to convey the subject of quantum communication in a lively and understandable way. We provide the necessary technical equipment!

News for Schools

We had the pleasure of presenting, the workshop ‘Quantums in a Journey Through Time’, offering participants a unique opportunity to learn more about the principles of quantum communication.

We illustrated how fundamental phenomena, such as superposition and hashtag#entanglement, provide an unprecedented level of security, allowing any eavesdropping attempt to be detected immediately. In addition, we retraced the key stages of quantum research and analysed the future prospects of this revolutionary technology.

Quantum communication easy taught

Modules with curriculum reference

As part of QUARKS, we offer 90-minute school modules that are tailored to the Saxon and Bavarian curriculum. Developed by scientists and educators, these modules introduce students to the exciting world of quantum communication.
The modules cover the basics of quantum physics, innovative technologies such as quantum computers and various communication models. They can be flexibly adapted to different school types, class levels and learning areas. Even if the topic is not directly included in the learning area, the modules can also be offered in computer science lessons on information security, for example.

School Modules

Module 1—Quantum time travel

In this module, the fascinating phenomena of quantum physics such as superposition, the uncertainty principle and entanglement are explained in a clear way. Pupils then learn how these principles form the basis for tap-proof communication. A journey through time to the scientists of the past sheds light on important milestones in quantum research. Finally, we take a look at the future of quantum communication and discuss the opportunities these technologies offer for the world of tomorrow.
