Craniofacial+Surgery

The junior class has been assigned a semester long project to work on in groups of 4 or 5. This project is about a scientific revolution that has happened over time. The topic of my group's choice was craniofacial surgery. This type of reconstructive surgery involves parts of the face that have abnormalities from birth. Our group has been researching on how craniofacial surgery has affected the life of many children across the world.

In the first component, our group members did research about the topic and had various media when bringing all of the information together. We each had five sources, some of us had the same source without knowing. We had various websites, a book called __Craniofacial Surgery__, and a video called Health Matters: Craniofacial Surgery.

In our website we talked about his life and the things that he has done to affect craniofacial surgery. All of the things that we wrote about were written as a blog, to show as if the person wrote about himself.

In this component our group is making a magazine that expresses our scientific revolution. It will consist of five articles written, one written by each group member. The articles that will be written about are...   The magazine will try to be as realistic as possible in order to complete all of the checkpoints.

To complete this component the group has to come up with a price for the magazine that was made in component 3. Instead of just coming up with a price at the top of our heads, we made a survey and handed it out to 100 people and then did a series of calculations and graphs to determine that our price would be about......(haven't finished yet) __**Component 5**__ This component is about making a documentary that goes in depth about craniofacial surgery. We had an interview with what was supposed to be Joseph E. Murray, but he was unable to be reached.
