Witness Experiment

This time instead of building a profile, we had to build a face! In our groups, we were given magazines and our teacher told us to find 1 face each that were about the same size then cut them out. Then we cut out the major features of the face (i.e. eyes, nose, lips, etc) and give the pieces to whoever we were sitting beside so that they could try to put the face together. Then we put all of our pieces  in the center of our table and mixed them up. After that, we had to try to put our original face back together amid the jumble of parts, testing our memory. I learned how vital recognition could be in the case, because some of the pieces were very similar. But I think it would be easier to recognize a full face in a lineup, rather than try to sort picture pieces as we had to do.
