Teacher's / Instructor's Viewpoint
Teachers have an obligation to instruct their students in the basic safety practices required in science laboratories . They also have an obligation to instruct them in the basic principles of health hazards that are found in most middle and secondary school science laboratories . Instructors must provide safety information and training to the students for every stage of experiment planning and be there to observe,supervise , instruct and correct during the experimentation. Teachers play the most important role in insuring a safe and healthful learning environment for the students. The ideal time to impress on students'minds the need for caution and preparation is before and while they are working with chemical in science laboratories.
