Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Odden

    I have a much better sense of what research astronomy is about now, and I think I will have more confidence to try new things (related to astronomy) going forward.

  • Stalnaker.olivia

    NITARP has transformed my life and the way I teach, so it's difficult to find anything that has NOT been influenced by this experience!

  • Piper

    I think the overriding theme of what new teachers need to know it that, yes, even though you are going to feel overwhelmed at times you need to sit back and enjoy the ride.
