Reddit reviews Quantum Computing Explained

As a beginner myself what is helping me most is the book Quantum Computing Explained by David MacMahon. It has almost no Physics but is pretty heavy on the Math.

I have also started to look at these online resources and find them promising:

• Quantum Machine Learning
  
• Quantum Computing for the determined
  
• Lectures on Quantum Computation
  
• Quantum Computing for the very curious
  
  I am also taking MIT's online quantum computing series that has a 4 courses with lectures from Prof. Shor and Prof. Chuang among others. Unfortunately I am not getting much out of it. The most heavily recommended book on QC is Neilsen & Chuang but again it is not working well for me. It is too abstract with not enough examples to really explain the concepts. Of course YMMV :-)

Quantum games. It is a simple topic and might be quite interesting for young students. As a reference you can use paper by my collaborator:
An invitation to Quantum Game Theory

There are also two recent papers about the subject (both paywalled)

• Using Quantum Games To Teach Quantum Mechanics, Part 1
  
• Using Quantum Games To Teach Quantum Mechanics, Part 2
  
  A very good book that presents a simple introduction to quantum computing is one by David McMahon.
  
  You can use simulators as a teaching aid - a list of them you can find on quantiki.org
  
  Hope this helps.
