A Model to Assess the Impact of Computer Simulations and Photonics Demonstrations in Quantum Information Learning

Quantum information Education is a growing area where professionals and students of diverse disciplines converge to develop proper solutions. The interest of those students is materialized seeking introductory approaches to this knowledge. Still, learning design for diverse backgrounds requires multiple approximations for theoretical contents, applications, calculation scaffolding, etc. Innovation oriented towards this effort becomes valuable due to students' limited time for such an experience. This work presents a proposed assessment for three technical innovation initiatives in Quantum information Education based on a mathematical model proposed to measure their impact on the research products through eight dimensions. Outcomes show an explicit sustained improvement in the quality of those products, while the model lets to identify the fingerprint of each innovation through a set of eight dimensions.
