with the fundamental goal of ensuring the "dissemination of knowledge of physics, particularly by way of teaching." Founders, Homer L. Dodge, Paul E. Klopsteg, and William S. Webb, led the effort to organize the first association dedicated to improving physics education. Today that vision is supported by members around the world.</h4> <p>聽</p></div></div><div id="cs_control_58380" class="cs_control CS_Element_Custom"><div class="row"> <div class="col-md-3"> <a href="/aboutaapt/history/index.cfm" class="promo promo-overlay promo-left-content" style="background-image:url('/images/phillips_melba_a4_web_1_2.jpg');"> <span class="promo-details"> <span class="promo-title">Learn about our History</span> <span class="promo-description"> Read about the rich and fascinating history of AAPT </span> </span> </a> </div> <div class="col-md-3"> <a href="/aboutaapt/organization/code_of_conduct.cfm" class="promo promo-overlay promo-left-content" style="background-image:url('/aboutaapt/images/socialize.jpg');"> <span class="promo-details"> <span class="promo-title">Code of Conduct</span> <span class="promo-description"> </span> </span> </a> </div> <div class="col-md-3"> <a href="/aboutaapt/organization/contact_us.cfm" class="promo promo-overlay promo-left-content" style="background-image:url('/images/presenter.jpg');"> <span class="promo-details"> <span class="promo-title">Contact Us</span> <span class="promo-description"> Browse our Staff Directory </span> </span> </a> </div> <div class="col-md-3"> <a href="/aboutaapt/2022-Strategic-Plan.cfm" class="promo promo-overlay promo-left-content" style="background-image:url('/images/Computational-Modeling_1.png');"> <span class="promo-details"> <span class="promo-title">Read our Mission</span> <span class="promo-description"> View about our Mission to enhance the understanding of Physics through Teeaching. </span> </span> </a> </div> </div></div></div></div></div><div id="gridRow_2_50414_49037" class="cs_GridRow full-row full-row-light-gray"><div id="gridRow_inner_2_50414_49037" class="container-fluid"><div id="gridCol_2_1_50414_50415_49037" class="cs_GridColumn"><div id="cs_control_58338" class="cs_control CS_Element_Schedule"><div title="" id="CS_Element_58330_58338"><div id="gridRow_1_50759_58338" class="cs_GridRow container-fluid"><div id="gridRow_inner_1_50759_58338" class="row"><div id="gridCol_1_1_50759_50760_58338" class="cs_GridColumn col-md-8"><div id="cs_control_58339" class="cs_control CS_Element_Textblock"><div class="CS_Textblock_Text"><h4>Dedicated to Your Professional Success</h4> <p>AAPT<sup>庐</sup> is a strong professional physics science society dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in physical science education.</p> <p>Want to know more about AAPT's mission, history, goals, and organizational structure?
