2a.)
Sender- is responsible for releasing the message to the receiver.
Receiver- is the target of the message or the person receiving the message.
Encoding- process of transforming information from one format to another. Example: converting sound into electrical impulses, transmitted by wires.
Decoding- takes the encoded message and converts it to a form the receiver understands.
Channel- is the way the medium is used to convey information from the sender to the receiver ex.
Noise- measure of information not related to the message.

Sender- Project Manager
Encoding- computer
Channel-email- message
Decoding- computer
Receiver- Engineer
Noise- pop up advertisements
2c.) In the Engineering process Designers which are the senders, use computers which are encoders to channel a message using AutoCAD drawings. Then the printer decodes the drawing and the drawings are then given to technicians in the field who are the receivers in the communication model. Noise is errors and complications in the process.
2d.) The Shannon-Weaver Mathematical Model seems to best fit the communication model above.
