How Do You Design A High School Chemistry Laboratory?
School chemistry laboratories play an important part in allowing students to perform scientific experimentation in the same way that professional scientists do. Due to the complex nature of some chemistry experiments, they must be performed in an safe and appropriate environment. When designing a chemistry laboratory, you must provide the proper tools to perform effective experiments and to protect the safety of budding scientists. Place a fully equipped teaching lab station at the front of the room. Situate the station to provide clear sightlines for all students so they can clearly see teaching demonstrations before they conduct experiments themselves. Create student lab stations that can accommodate up to five students within view of the teacher’s lab station so that teachers can easily monitor the students’ work. By creating spacious work areas, the stations can accommodate activities in which students are working in pairs or in larger groups. Select a laboratory work surface certi
