NITARP (NASA/IPAC Teacher Archive Research Program) gets teachers involved in
authentic astronomical research. Small groups of mostly high school
educators work with professional astronomers for an original research
project.
TAKEAWAYS:
1. A clear understanding of the application process to apply for a NITARP opportunity; 2. An idea of the research experience of a participant involved in this astronomy experience; and 3. An awareness of the vast astronomy resources (images and astronomy programs) available for free to educators and their students.
