Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Rutherford

    The best thing about the trip was the chance to interact with others who are trying to do the same things that I am trying to do. No one else around me tries to do student research (even though I have tried to get other teachers involved), not in my district nor in any of the surrounding ones. It was great to spend time with other teachers (and their students) who are trying to accomplish the same things that I am trying to do.

    NITARP has set a high standard for any professional development experience.

    There are very few of us that teach astronomy in our county, so I'd really like to improve the astronomy program in the county.
