include instructors, peers, engineers or the general population. Forpracticing engineers this may include colleagues, superiors, clients or manufacturers. Included intenor is the mood that the language communicates. For example, if an engineering student iscommunicating in class with his or her peers, the mood may be casual or inquisitive. In contrast,if a practicing engineer is providing a design recommendation to a manufacturer, the mood mightbe professional and authoritative. Typically, the tenor dictates which mode of communication ismost appropriate. The third variable of register, mode, refers to the medium of communication orspecifically how one will be communicating. For example, communication can occur verbally orthrough writing. The in

the writing of laboratory reports and in-class presentations. The Green Projects-to-Pavements project was a proposed study funded in-part by theUniversity of Colorado – Presidential Teaching and Learning Collaborative Program. Theindividuals that contributed to this study included the faculty and teaching assistant thatdeveloped and administered the study, a peer-group of collaborators acting as an advisory panel,and the students of the class. The problem-based design project was a semester long projectbeginning with students being given a project objective, followed by students performing theirown literature research, material selection, obtaining materials, experimentation, testing, andpresentation.
