ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

I also think that's a great idea - I was reading through the 
conversation about museum evaluation while the parallel discussion was 
going on about ADA and universal design and it made me think about how 
one has influenced the development of the other.    I think that one of 
the impacts of museum evaluation has been the forward movement of 
learning how to develop exhibits that work for all audiences.  This 
really came about with the wider use of prototyping exhibits with 
targeted audiences.  I think that science museums have really led the 
way in both of these areas.  I think all of this would be great 
discussion at ASTC.
