Quantum Computing for high school: an approach to interdisciplinary in STEM for teaching

The paper focuses on a Quantum Computing teaching module for high school students that was designed and implemented within the I SEE Erasmus+ project (https://iseeproject.eu/). The module is discussed as an example of how the S-T-E-M disciplines can be integrated to stress the conceptual, epistemological, and social relevance of quantum computing. We implemented a three-level approach to introduce quantum technologies without getting lost in the technicalities. The approach has allowed us to highlight the difference between classical and quantum computers and to bring out the interdisciplinary character that characterises the new technologies.
