The idea of a discussion at ASTC is a good on. I think however it needs to be focused. Charlie has raised enough issues for a graduate seminar. It would also be much more useful if the discussion was evidence based.

> 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.
