Manual of Safety and Health Hazards in the School Science Laboratory.

PB83187435

Publication Date	1980
Personal Author	Berberich, N. J.
Page Count	113
Abstract	The purpose of this manual is to provide high school science teachers with a compact reference to hazards encountered while performing experiments in the areas of chemistry the earth sciences, biology, and physics. When preparing experiments, teachers are urged to locate the relevant experimental class using the table of contents, which is on pages v and vi. By turning to the appropriate sections, teachers can identify the sources of hazards in their experiments. Appropriate corrective and protective action should be incorporated in the work plan. Prior to the laboratory session, the potential hazards should be discussed with the students and a professional atmosphere established for conduct of the experiments.
