| Abstract | The United States is entering a "quantum revolution," but quantum ideas and applications remain largely absent from high-school physics classrooms. High-school physics teachers are a key leverage point for broadening early exposure to quantum information science and quantum sensing, yet most teachers have had limited preparation and often lack local colleagues and subject-specific professional development. This project will test an unproven but potentially transformative approach: repurposing an |
