Description
The Harold Q. and Charlotte Mae Fuller Fund, administered by the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT), seeks to enhance the internationalization of AAPT membership. The fund provides selected physics educators from countries with low, lower-middle, and upper-middle income economies or nonconvertible currencies with a two-year electronic AAPT membership. This membership includes full electronic access to leading physics journals such as the American Journal of Physics, The Physics Teacher, and Physics Today, as well as access to AAPT resources and professional development opportunities. The initiative is designed to empower physics teachers internationally, fostering excellence in physics education and strengthening the global physics teaching community.
