Tissues Project
TISSUES PROJECT - LINKS
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
Step 1: To research about the types of tissue, click on the links below and read the information. Fill out the provided notes as you go. You may also choose to watch the videos to help in your learning.
National Cancer Institute: SEER Training Modules
Mc-Graw-Hill Company: Tissue of the Human Body
Exploring Nature: Four Basic Tissue Types
If you choose to watch the videos, please watch them in order to benefit your understanding.
Tissues of the Human Body: What is Histology? (Video 1)
Tissues of the Human Body: What is Connective Tissue? (Video 2)
Tissues of the Human Body: What is Epithelial Tissue? (Video 3)
Tissues of the Human Body: What is Neural Tissue? (Video 4)
Tissues of the Human Body: What is Physiology? (Video 5- muscular tissue)
Step 2: Research what type of tissue causes scars and how scars form- specifically looking for scars that form on skin, similar to the scratch you received. Click on the links below and fill out the appropriate section of the provided notes.

Step 3: Research Mederma ®, a common scar-reducing medicine. Mederma ® is a very well-known cream that is said to reduce the visibility and appearance of scars and is stated as the #1 brand recommended by doctors. If you trust any medicine to put on your beautiful face, it might be Mederma ® but you want to make sure it is safe and that you understand how it works, before you try it. Click on the links below and fill out the appropriate section of the provided notes.

eHow: How Does Mederma ® Work?
Livestrong: How Does Mederma ® Work On The Skin?
Step 4: Using the notes you have taken so far in this webquest, create a project to show what you have learned and what you have decided about using Mederma ®. Below are the expectations for your PSA, as well as the rubric on which you will be graded. Read them both very carefully. Your project will be required to demonstrate knowledge about each tissue type and scars.
Project Description: Create a PSA (public service announcement) explaining to the public about the four types of tissues and scars. Details: The PSA can be either a short video or a brochure.
For both options: write the PSA as if your project would be printed for a real audience to read- keep that in mind as you write it.
Brochures should be computer-generated. You can find templates for brochures in Microsoft Word if you would like to use one. Make sure to include ALL the required information.
Videos should include a detailed script (to be turned in) and uploaded to youtube.com. Your PSA can be humorous or serious in nature, but make sure that all required information is included. It should be roughly 2-3 minutes in length. We will view PSA videos in class.
Examples of PSA videos can be found at:
