My model focuses off two main hubs of the iFoundry system, the iFoundry and iEFX “programs” in general. From there I attempted to model how those systems influenced people, how people guided the system, how the system influenced people, what information did the system disseminate, how the people participating in the system interacted with each other, and finally how people fed information back into the system. A design note: I decided to separate iEFX administrators and iFoundry administrators, I figured it would be conceptually easier, for all I know they could be the same people.
The model I drew immediately makes a few things obvious, firstly the iEFX program (and by extension the iFoundry program) has to generate a HUGE amount of guidance as well as information for courses, along with the useful information it passes along to students. The model also brings me to wonder how much guidance the College of Engineering has upon the program, although it seems that a lot of the people who are involved in running iFoundry also guide the College of Engineering. Finally the interactions between iFoundry and its students (outside of IEFX) are probably much more extensive than I have shown on this model.
