From probabilities to Bell’s inequalities: a pathway for secondary school quantum literacy

Quantum mechanics is a key part of modern science and technology, but its complexity makes it challenging to teach it in schools. We suggest a teaching method for secondary schools that focuses on Bell’s inequalities and how they are tested experimentally. Using students’ understanding of statistics and probability, we provide a step-by-step approach. This includes hands-on activities, like a simple card game, and discussions of CHSH experiments, to help students see the differences between classical and quantum probability. Early testing shows promising results, indicating that this method could be effective.
