As experienced educators and researchers, our observation is that whilecybersecurity education has witnessed extensive collaboration across government, industry, andacademia, quantum education in some sectors is not receiving the attention as highlighted bygovernment initiatives. We propose a systematic approach, leveraging established frameworkslike NICE, to integrate quantum computing education into mainstream curricula to ensure thatindustry will not have the large gap of filling jobs as the cybersecurity sector is currentlyexperiencing.We present an analysis of two courses introduced in our CS department: "Introduction toQuantum Computing," and "Quantum Computing II."

-Ytabo: Overview of the Main ComponentsMACILE-Ytabo is an emerging solutions-driven model. The main focus is engineering a robustand efficient system to increase access to challenging and stimulating MACILE classrooms andresources, thereby producing a growing pool of talented young people interested in engineeringand the sciences. The model integrates teacher development, student skills development,curriculum and material development, selective preparatory education, and access to essentialresources. MACILE-Ytabo has limited scale and a wide scope. It targets two critical groups: (i)talented students in the top 20% of the class and (ii) teachers that want to excel in their fields andbecome master MACILE educators. The latter will improve the

The specific objectivesof the RET project component were to: • Provide an in-depth research experience to two STEM teachers and prepare them to translate their technical experience to their curriculum. • Increase the teachers’ awareness of the profound potential of students with ADHD in engineering and gain knowledge on more effective ways to teach to these students. • Broaden the impact of the REU project through dissemination of the teachers’ experiences.The teachers joined two different engineering research projects and worked directly with theREU students assigned to the respective projects.

Participants were split into five groups and teamed up with anengineering faculty and an engineering undergraduate student each. During their 40 hours/weekwork schedule, participants worked on faculty-supervised research projects for 25 hours/weekand the remaining time was reserved for development of classroom unit plans.This paper presents details about the RET Site’s management and discusses lessons learned fromour experiences.

The lack ofonline teaching in engineering is typically attributed to the difficulties of converting hands-onlabs to virtual classrooms, a lack of helpful resources, and the unfamiliarity of instructors withonline teaching techniques [3]. While online education has sometimes been included in theelectrical and computer sub-fields of engineering, a lack of instructor competence with helpfultools and technology is still a significant barrier to successful integration [4]. In the past,engineering students have reported negative reactions to online learning. In contrast, wheninstructors focused on compassion and flexibility when adjusting their pedagogy andcommunication during the initial COVID-19 crisis, students
