We do not lack information about should be taught regarding safety.  What we lack is a serious commitment teaching safety at the undergraduate level by many institutions.  That said, my impression is that the "state of the art" is better in 2022 than it was in 2012 and it will continue to improve.  The ACS website about safety is replete with resources.  What we are trying to do is change a culture; this is slow.  Patience is advised, but stagnation should not be tolerated.  Progress is often made at individual institutions when a "champion for safety" emerges.  Press on.

The Laboratory Safety Institute is also creating a book on this topic called 1001 Questions Every Science Educator Should Know. It's still being developed, and I'm not sure when it will be published.

 

I am a co-editor for this project, if anyone is interested in submitting questions please let me know.

A retired ACS colleague asked me if there were examples of "validated 'Safety Questionnaires' to evaluate the level of understanding of laboratory safety for educators" available.  We have discussed this and related on this list.  I am putting together a list of such documents for the colleague.

Please send me via the list or privately what you are willing to share.

 

I do not know the application this is wanted for, but knowing this colleague, it will be valuable and interesting.

 

Thank you in advance

Neal
