    The document summarizes 5 trials of a guinea pig navigating a maze. In the first trial, the guinea pig initially tried to exit the maze but was pushed through the correct door. It then made no errors. In the second trial, it took longer and made more errors. In the third trial, it was faster and made fewer errors, indicating it remembered parts of the maze. In the fourth trial, it was faster with fewer errors. In the fifth trial, it completed the maze fastest with no errors but exited to get food instead of the exit. Overall, the guinea pig learned the maze over trials and relied less on cues.

    Trial 1

    Time 1:36 minutes


    Error (wrong route): 0
    Error (walk back): 4
    At first, when the guinea pig enters the maze, it turns its head back and try to get out of the
    maze by using the entry. Then it starts to move forward to the direction of the red door
    which is the correct one. However, it moves back to the entry again. When it is moving
    forward to the right door, one of the group member pushed it a bit and it walk into that
    door. I believe that this is not what our group should do, ad it effects the results of the
    experiment. After it pass that door, it does not make any mistake through out the maze.
    Trial 2
    Time 1:56 mintues
    Error (wrong route): 0
    Error (walk back): 9
    This is the second trial, but instead of taking shorter time, the guinea pig take longer time
    than the first trial. Moreover, the guinea pig also made more mistake in this trial compare to
    the first trial that he did.
    Trial 3
    Time 1:10 minutes
    Error (wrong route): 0
    Error (walk back): 3
    In this third trial, the guinea pig is able to solve the maze faster than the first two trials and
    it also made lesser mistake. The guinea pig seems to remember some parts of the maze
    already.
    Trial 4
    Time 0.40 minute
    Error (wrong route): 0
    Error (walk back): 2
    In this trial, the guinea pig is moving faster and able to solve maze in less than a minute.
    Furthermore, the mistakes are way much less than those of the previous trials.
    Trial 5
    Time 0.30 minute
    Error (wrong route): 0
    Error (walk back): 0
    This is the last trial and the guinea pig make no mistake at all. Moreover, this is the fastest
    time of all trials. However, the guinea pig did not walk out to the exit of the maze, but
    instead it went out, grab its food and return to the maze.
    Conclusion
    To conclude, the guinea pig is able to follow the cues even though it made some mistakes in
    almost all of the trials. It remembers the cues and signals that we teach it. However, in the
    last two trials, it seems that the guinea pig can memorize the maze and follow what it
    remembers. Overall the cue is effective, but when the guinea pig can memorize the maze
    already it doesn’t play any role in helping the guinea pig to solve the maze.
