What is Quantum Information?
In order to find out the answer to this question, see John Watrous' Youtube playlist "Understanding quantum information and computation".
Also you can learn by playing these educacional games:
Bas|ket>ball,
Quantum TiqTaqToe, and
Quantum Chess
Qplaylearn is an innovative platform to help learning Quantum Science in a playful way.

I strongly encourage the students who are interested in Quantum Information to attend some conferences on the subject. I encourage the students to attend some conferences in order
to explore the current research trends. Here is a
list of some interesting conferences that I reccommend.
Here is the website of the Quantum Information and Analysis seminar at the University of South Carolina.
