EVERYDAY! lol I tell you something Jacob, everyday there will be an experiment that has’t worked quite the way I wanted it too, but that is a GOOD thing! It means that I can focus on changing a few things in my experimental design and I can make it work! If anything I know I can make it work better! Believe me, a scientist that says OH MY EXPERIMENTS WORK EVERY TIME are probably twisting the truth a little 😛
Haha, most days there are experiments that don’t work!
I think you learn the most as a scientist when something you expect to happen *doesn’t* happen, or happens differently. If everything worked exactly how we expected, we wouldn’t need to do experiments!
When things don’t work, we learn more about what’s going on, and it can get a bit miserable when nothing works but you just gotta keep pushing through! : )
Most days something goes wrong jacob, that’s the nature of science! Sometimes it’s because I get something wrong by accident (being careless) which is super annoying because it wastes a lot of time and can put your schedule out. Other times it is because you are doing experiments that no one has ever tried before, and you have to get it wrong a few times before it will work the way you want it to. Sometimes science is all about trial and error! But it’s okay, in science you don’ normally get in trouble if an experiment doesn’t work. It’s usually the opposite. If it doesn’t work, you can ask yourself “why?” and it leads to new experiments and new discoveries all of its own. That’s why science is so exciting every day!
