Mission

  1. Seek ways in which physics concepts, the importance of science literacy and research, and the interaction between science and society, can be effectively conveyed to the public, of all ages and persuasions in both formal and informal educational settings.
  2. Aid in keeping the AAPT membership informed of the importance of communicating science and an enthusiasm for science to the public, and of effective means for doing so.
