iFoundry

From the iFoundry website:

"The Illinois Foundry for Innovation in Engineering Education (iFoundry) is a cross-disciplinary curriculum incubator in the College of Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign dedicated to the transformation of engineering education in ways appropriate to the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. iFoundry adopts the view that educational transformation requires organizational, conceptual, and aspirational change, that effective reform requires (1) deep reflection about and attention to the complex system in which engineering education is embedded, (2) multiple change modes to promote collective learning and doing among the complex system’s elements and constituents, and (3) the honoring and support of student aspirations, choices, and engagement in the educational process."
