Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • 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!

  • Donelson

    The process of gathering and analyzing data was very important to help show my kids what real research is like. And since our data didn't come out nice and neat like some labs do, it really helped push my kids to think outside the box.

  • Thompson

    I think that the most surprising thing about it was how young everyone was! I absolutely did not expect that, maybe because the amateur community is so much older by comparison, and is mainly composed of retired people.
