(CLICK THE IMAGE TO ENLARGE)So as of right now, this is the direction I'm heading in. My general thoughts are that I really like linear graphics and things that are very streamlined in presentation (the Bates model really spoke to me and seemed straight forward) I'm not a huge fan of bubbles and squiggles that make things look like a choose your own adventure novel. The only trouble with this is it doesn't lend itself to appearing to be iterative. Though it's not displayed, there will be a feedback component from Evaluation back into the Design & Development section (and possibly back into FEA section too). My other struggle is trying to represent the communication aspect, and bringing the focus onto the students.
Another issue I'm debating is something Steve and I spoke about- when assessing the students , something along the lines of an observational checklist would be beneficial. I'm creating something similar for my Front End Analysis class, but it most likely will not be ready for this project submission. Do I include what I have as an appendix, or maybe have a list for one of the learning styles, or leave it out all together? Part of me feels that the more that's included, the richer the material becomes as a whole. On the other hand, the fact that it's unfinished bothers me.

Maybe a vertical box labeled communication - showing how it cuts across all the other areas?
I like it--it's clean cut and gets to the point. The idea of a observation checklist is a good one. I think the process is a little broad from stage to stage, but I suppose that leaves room for the teachers to do their job!
Amber, I had the same problem when it came to finding a away to link the evaluation back into the FEA and Design and Development phase. To solve this problem rather than link back to those phases l decided to have the model repeat itself over and over again. I'm not sure that would work with your model as my looks to emphasize continuous development over a period of time. With your model I get the picture in my head of the linear design being wrapped around a cylinder so when you are done with the evaluation it links back into FEA.
I think you have a good design here and have clearly been thinking about the components involved at each phase. Have you thought of using set templates for lesson designs? Such as RLO (Reusable Learning Objectives)? I still looking to how exactly they fit into the teaching and learning architectures involved in my models system.
