The iefx system begins with inputs. In this case, I chose the inputs to be students and faculty, because they are the foundation of the entire operation. These inputs then undergo certain processes. Students and faculty both collaborate in lab and lecture work under the watch of TAs and LAs and in iTeam work under the watch of the iHead. They are also aided by different advisors that are involved in iefx and help out along the way. The outputs of these efforts include lab projects such as the steam car and the arduino project, a new understanding of engineering knowledge such as missing basics, and the iTeam projects we do with our iTeam. The last components of the system, the feedback, include the quality of the projects and the class grade. These examples of feedback inform the students and the faculty how effective the iefx program is, and informs them how much engineering learning actually took place throughout the course of the semester.
At first, I was very puzzled by your drawing. I did not exactly know what went where. But after examining it, I think it is really interesting. Everything is very interconnected, and I believe that is a true representation of iEFX. The students, faculty, and the Higher Ups are all really working together through iEFX. Nice work.
