Lauren Magee: Reflection Questions
- What worked?
- A lot has been accomplished since the last status report and I now have a file that is ready for the GenMapp protocol. I have been going through an intense editing process of this file for sometime now with Dr. Dahlquist and my fellow group members, so that the file I currently have will hopefully produce error free results during GenMapp analysis.
- What didn't work?
- In my original data file for GenMapp, I had accidentally copied over an entire column, but had labeled it as something else. This made the rest of my calculations, that had been based off of this data, invalid so I had to carefully correct my mistakes. If this error hadn't been pointed out by Dr. Dahlquis during the editing process, the results for my entire GenMapp analysis would have been incorrect. That is why professor and peer review is so important, because they are able to catch mistakes you may have glazed over in your own editing.
- What will I do next to fix what didn't work?
- I have already fixed the incorrect column in my original data set, so I know have an error free document to run in GenMapp. There may be new errors that are shown while I am following the GenMapp protocol, but for now, everything appears correct.
