Abstract. First year professional Master’s students at the Faculty of Infor-mation, University of Toronto are taught how to analyze problem domains us-ing i * modeling in the final segment of the introductory course on “Systems Analysis and Process Innovation”. Over the past several years, the course in-structors and teaching assistants have had the opportunity to observe and inter-act with the course students on the learning and use of the i * framework for modeling and analysis which makes it possible to make general observations regarding student experiences with the i * framework in an instructional setting. These observations are broad ranging and cover areas such as pedagogical de-sign, conceptual understanding and proficiency with the i * framework, domain modeling and analysis, and tools for i * modeling.
