This NSF-funded initiative represents a strategic pivot toward workforce pipeline development, leveraging AI-enhanced pedagogy to scale education in quantum cybersecurity. By training high school STEM educators rather than funding direct research hardware, the project addresses critical talent shortages at the foundational level of scientific literacy. The integration of gamification and AI tools suggests an evolution in how complex quantum concepts are made accessible for secondary-level instruction.
