DESCRIPTION:Quantum mechanics is among the most challenging scientific topi
 cs and students constantly struggle to master basic concepts. Yet\, we are
  in the midst of a second quantum revolution\, which will be responsible f
 or many of the key physical technological advances for the 21st century.\n
 \nThe future STEM workforce need to be familiarized with quantum concepts 
 as well as gaining hands-on experience in the instrumentation widely used 
 in emerging technological areas (e.g.\, nanotechnology and biomedicine).\n
 \nJoin us as we share experiences in the teaching of quantum topics at dif
 ferent levels\; K-12\, technical college\, and university (from freshman t
 o senior and graduate student levels).\n\nThe topics include:\n\n- lecture
  classes and easily understandable and affordable experiments with single 
 and entangled photons\;\n- how to improve students’ learning\, especiall
 y at large enrollment\, and how to evaluate what the students learned\;\n-
  how to elicit average students’ interest\;\n- training technicians\;\n-
  K-12 education\, outreach activity and public engagement using animations
 \, educational websites\, software simulation tools and games devoted to 
 “quantum”.\n\nThis symposium will comprise of a presider overview\, 30
 -min invited talks\, 15-min contributed talks and posters.\n\nCo-sponsored
