Journal Descriptions

The Physics Teacher is a longstanding, peer-reviewed educational journal established in 1963, published monthly by AIP Publishing on behalf of the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT). The journal serves as a key resource for physics educators at the secondary and college levels, with a strong emphasis on introductory physics instruction. Its content is designed to support teachers by sharing innovative teaching strategies, classroom-tested demonstrations, laboratory ideas, and curriculum enhancements that strengthen physics teaching and learning. The scope of the journal encompasses a blend of pedagogy, practical teaching techniques, and physics content, along with articles on the history and philosophy of physics, applied physics topics, and book reviews. It includes tutorial articles that explain physics concepts clearly for instructional use and columns that offer ideas for demonstrations, problem solving, and engagement in the physics classroom. The Editor-in-Chief, Gary White, leads the editorial team with an educational focus, ensuring that The Physics Teacher remains relevant to the evolving needs of physics educators worldwide. While specific editorial email addresses are not publicly listed, authors and readers typically communicate with the editorial office via the journal’s official submission platform on the AIP/AAPT publications site.
