We use them for conferring & assessing (as well as small group intervention).

Nice site.  I would like to join the wiki so I could view everything.  I will request membership as technogadget.  Thanks

I believe the site is 100% public viewable (it should be, it's part of a grant application... I'll double check the settings) but feel free to join regardless.

Glad to hear you find it useful

Yes, but I think I tried to leave a discussion topic.  Also, I find it very useful and so will most of my staff.
