“All of physics is either impossible or trivial. It is impossible until you understand it, and then it becomes trivial” - Ernest Rutherford (1871 - 1937)
The primary objective of a teacher is to share his/her love of a subject with students. It is important to establish an active, aggressive, and innovative interaction between a teacher and students. Learning Physics has many societal advantages, it helps to become a critical thinker and a compassionate humanitarian. A teacher is thus expected to play the role of a mentor for her/his students. In this digital era, classroom teaching of a basic science subject like Physics has been becoming challenging. With a legacy of over three hundred years, Physics has become a major branch of natural sciences with huge number of sub-disciplines. There are many options available for the students nowadays, and it can become rather difficult to choose the most suitable one with which one can pursue a career. Only a teacher can sort out these confusions and can shape the future of a student. This culture of influential guidance and collaborative work with young minds is what a teacher needs to imbibe and this necessitates to remain updated with the recent advances in physics teaching and training globally.
IAPT was established in the year 1984 by the great visionary late Dr. D.P. Khandelwal with active support from some physics teachers with the aim of upgrading the quality of physics teaching and physics teachers through a mass movement of dedicated teachers.
Since then it has grown into a major organization with more than 11000 members of which 8000 are Life-members, 65 are institutional member’s and about 100 of them from abroad. The members include research workers, science administrators, science savvy enthusiasts, university, college and school teachers.
A 3-day National Convention is organized every year, since 1984, on some specific theme. This year it is the 34th National Annual Convention which is going to be organized at IIIT Allahabad from 13-15 October’19 on the theme of “Recent Advances & Innovations in Physics Teaching and Research (RAIPTR-2019)”.
Papers are presented by members and lectures are delivered by experts in the field. Presentation of innovations in teaching methods, demonstrations and lab experiments is a regular feature in all conventions.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
