Description

Teachers are increasingly recognizing the need-and their power-to advocate on behalf of the teaching profession for the sake of their students and communities. National organizations like AAPT have a key role in amplifying teachers' voices. Building on the strategic vision for K-12 physics teacher professional development of the 'Aspiring to Lead' report, AAPT broke new ground by supporting teams of educators in addressing local- and state-level issues related to physics education.
