I cannot say enough positives about the NITARP experience for the participating students. They have had the opportunity to learn and grow and see science applied in authentic research projects while working with some of the coolest scientists around! It has allowed me to grow as a teacher and researcher and be able to share my insight and newfound knowledge with students and peers.
It's awesome what [NITARP has] done over these 20 years. They definitely have a passion for teaching
I met a lot of people over the course of [my first AAS]. So many people were interested in chatting, especially with a high school physics teacher!
