Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Thompson

    The surprising part of our research was the time we spent on communication, and the value of saying something out-loud has to understanding it.

  • Albin

    It's really fun to do this project, not just by myself, but with a student.

  • Novatne

    I really feel that NITARP is a gem of a program.
