Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Debbie

    [This experience] has made me realize that while I use a lot of inquiry, I don’t always involve my students in the process of developing a testable question.

  • Edwards

    It was wonderful to see the students from last year presenting their posters and talking with astronomers and teachers from all over the world.

  • Curtis

    I would advise the scientists to not be afraid of pushing the teachers and students outside their comfort zone. It’s ok if the teachers and students are struggling- we’ll catch up! Just go – make us work hard. It’s what we signed up for.
