Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Rutherford

    It’s addictive—this is not like any other program that you have ever been through, where you participate for a while and then finish up and then it’s just something that you did once. I have found that I don’t want to stop[...] A certain percentage of us, at least, can’t put this down once we are exposed to it.

  • Paulsen

    My skills and knowledge as a science teacher have grown exponentially in the last year.

  • Senson

    NITARP has been the best experience I have ever had for my personal and professional development as an astronomy educator.
