    When dealing with experiment failure I believe it is necessary to take a step back, and reflect on what could have gone wrong. Errors cannot be fixed without first knowing what the problem is. Brainstorming, and working through the process of the experiment theoretically before the performing of the experiment is, in a way, like proof reading a paper. Going back over procedures, and double checking the materials used could be all the difference in fixing an issue within an experiment. However, if the experiment keeps failing, than it will need to be changed entirely; in which the experiment definitely needs to be “brought back to the drawing board”, and new procedures need to be created. The best way to a quick resolution, in my opinion, would be careful review and planning.
