Treat your classroom like a lab for your own teaching!

AAPT’s 4-month Virtual PLC lets you experiment with new strategies, test them live with your students, and bring the results back to a small group of peer physics teachers for feedback.

2 virtual meetings/month
Real classroom testing between sessions
Fully funded by the AIP Venture Grant
