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 and quantum communication. 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!

55ª IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE)

Our Education Manager, Jessica Gollmann, represented QUARKS among 695 participants, presenting a work-in-progress paper describing the pilot phase of the first QUARKS module, developed together with Vivian Hoffmann for secondary schools.
The module is designed to introduce students to the fundamental concepts of quantum communication and the underlying physical principles, integrating them in a simple and engaging way into physics and computer science lessons.
We are proud that our educational initiatives are receiving international attention, opening up new possibilities for teaching quantum technologies in schools around the world!

Education meets science

And your class is part of it

It is important to us not only to impart education, but also to develop it further. That is why we accompany our modules with a short scientific survey: within 90 minutes, we record how the module influences your students’ motivation, interest and career orientation. This study has been approved by the Saxon State Ministry of Culture (SMK).
Participation in the survey is, of course, voluntary – the module can also be carried out independently of it.

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.
