Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Curtis

    Thanks so much for an amazing experience. NITARP has opened doors for me in many ways. It’s exposed me to real research, it’s got me thinking about ways to innovate and create real research experiences for my students, and it’s made me aware of the numerous opportunities out there for science teachers to become better at what they do.

  • Paulsen

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