Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Edwards

    The science part of our project was overwhelming to me at first. [...]Since then I have learned an incredible amount from my mentor teacher, mentor scientists and my group members.

  • Laura

    [...]creativity has to be a underling personality trait for scientists

  • Edwardsclay

    Science in the classroom can get so abstract, and after 20 years of teaching, I want to find out how people are using all of this math I'm talking about in class. I've always had an obsession with astronomy and physics, so NITARP is perfect for me.
