Questions we still haveDo we want to give feedback to programs?
Faculty (at their request)? In what form?How can we maintain anonymity for students
and instructors?How will we assess large groups of artifacts?
What are the logistics?What kinds of recommendations to we
foresee as we analyze artifacts in an institutional manner?
