field of quantum education has made a compelling case that broadening paths of access toQIS fields requires early introductions to key quantum concepts. We are wary of existingattempts to introduce K12 students to quantum concepts in ways that are disconnected fromapplication contexts, because these silos tend to separate technological innovation from theirapplications to solve human problems, and from technoscientific knowledge and practicesrequired to conduct the research. The primary goal of in this cycle of curriculum design was toestablish ways that quantum computing applications (e.g., drug discovery) could provideproblem contexts that undergird three-dimensional science and engineering instruction at themiddle school level.

Facing the challenges of today requires practice solving team-basedproblems so that freshmen gain not only design, but also personal and professional skills, early intheir career [13].

Furthermore, the efforts we make will be even more fruitful if we are able to constructchannels that are reusable, through which we can easily access the right target population

) education in the United States (US) was initiated between womenrepresenting academia and industry. The industry contingent provided financial support andmentorship to the academic side that resulted in undergraduate engineering student teamsdesigning and building educational products for use within primary and secondary educationschools with the goal of encouraging younger students to pursue careers in STEM fields. Due toan aging workforce at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the USDepartment of Defense (DoD), and the US Aerospace Industry, as well as the need to improvediversity in STEM jobs, the need to grow the US STEM pipeline is critical. This national priorityis informed by the fact that advancements and innovations in

, the idea of integrating GD&Tthroughout an engineering curriculum has found some traction. In a recent article18 published outof the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), researchers partnered with industry(mainly Caterpillar) to establish innovative, hands-on approaches to teaching GD&T throughoutseveral activities as part of a freshman engineering course on design and graphics. AlthoughGD&T was originally considered “difficult to teach and learn,” the new activities focused onmanufacturing and inspection, in addition to form, fit, and function of design. The new effortswere not assessed, but the authors do conclude that GD&T is a fundamental engineering tool thathas continued to gain emphasis in industry and
