Calling all Kentucky Physics Teachers!

We hold our fall meeting in November with the Kentucky Academy of Science. If you attend the Physics and Astronomy section of the KAS annual meeting, you’ll interact with the officers of the Kentucky Association of Physics Teachers. The section moderators are the current President of KAPT, Marilyn Akins, and Secretary Treasurer, John Waite. Our spring meetings are held independently in late March or early April and include a morning meet and greet, presentations by members and students, and an afternoon workshop on topics of interest. In the spring of 2024, the workshop examined AI in the physics classroom.
