These workshops are components of a NSF grant, which includes a research study titled, “Quantum for All Students”.  The study includes providing content and support for teachers to develop a sense of how Quantum Information Science (QIS) and technology will affect their students.  You can choose to participate in this research study if you are at least 18 years old and are affiliated with K-16 education as a teacher, facilitator, administrator, or supervisor. Your decision about whether to participate is entirely up to you. If you decide not to be in the study, there won’t be any punishment or penalty; whatever your choice, there will be no impact on any benefits or services that you would normally receive. While absolute confidentiality cannot be guaranteed, the research team will make every effort to protect the confidentiality of your records as described here and to the extent permitted by law.
Workshop Participant Requirements

2) Comfortable presenting to peer adults, co-workers, and students. 
3) Provide a letter of support from the school, district, or employer indicating permission to implement curriculum and use the equipment being distributed.  This is important to the overall objective of the project since the focus is to engage students in learning about quantum information science.  The letter may be sent electronically OR your supervisor can fill out a link to acknowledge support https://utaedu.questionpro.com/t/AR5muZm2Yq
