Questions to remember in creating an experiment:
  • What is the theme of our experiment?
  • What are the specific questions that we are trying to investigate?
  • Who is the target group/participants?
  • How high is the risk level in this experiment?
  • What measures are we taking to contain the risk?
  • What is the timescale?
  • What are the expected outcomes, and how do we measure them?
  • Do we need any materials?
  • What is the specific activity that will make our experiment?
Questions to remember in reflecting on an experiment:
  • What was the drive behind that experiment?
  • What were the expected outcomes and have we achieved them?
  • What are the unexpected outcomes that we discovered during and after our experiment?
  • What was the risk level?
  • What was the impact of the measures taken to contain the risk?
  • What was our emotional state during the experiment? the participant's emotional state?
