Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Molohon

    I'm always looking for things to do that help me to improve, to be a better teacher, and to be better for my kids. They'll learn from the things that I’ve learned, and it will be more applicable to real world stuff.

    I didn't anticipate meeting engineers and graphic artists [at the AAS].

  • Denise

    Over all, the NITARP experience was nothing I had ever experienced before as a teacher. The research was very interesting and challenging at the same time.
