To watch the 2013 forum, Assessment in the Arts, login below. The Assessment in the Arts Forum included Ed Tywoniak (Communication), Cathy Davalos (Dance), Peter Freund (Media Art), and Frank Murry (Theater) and was organized around the following questions:

• What is the role of the creative process in assessment?
• Does the process of working on an artistic project, choreographing a dance, creating a sculpture, or producing a video count in the assessment process?
• If so, how do we capture this evidence?
