The idea of a "safe fail" is an experiment or exercise designed with a
high likelihood of failure in the first (few) iteration(s). The
metacognitive goals are for learners
* to recognize failure as intrinsic to science (and life)
* to realize that failure is not a reason for punishment
* to be able to identify errors and failures
* to learn to troubleshoot methods
* to learn from failure, and not be afraid of it
* <others?>
I'm looking for examples of experiments and exercises that integrate
safe fails.
