Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Img_9306

    I had a request to present an inquiry professional development for educators while I was at NITARP and the AAS. Because of the amount of resources, new astronomy, lesson plans, and conversations I now feel I can try this with astronomy rather than my fields of practice.

  • Rutherford

    I will definitely be using the skills and the knowledge that I acquired in the NITARP program in the future for my own and for my future students’ research.

  • Doyle

    The experience has and will continue to help me develop more effective uses of NASA/JPL resources for me and to promote professional development.
