Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Edwards

    One of the most interesting things I learned while working with my team was how unique and surprising each star can be.

  • Rutherford

    [Because of a poster I saw at the AAS and] my participation in the NITARP program, I will be raising the standards for my students in the future.

  • Denise

    This [whole NITARP] experience will help me understand how students feel when they are presented with new material and don’t understand. I think this will give me more patience and understanding in this area.
