Arrangement and identification of materials in the science laboratory of the small high school
Abstract
Scope and Method of Study: This report is confined to the materials needed in the science laboratory, the development of a filing system, and facilities for the storage of these materials. Emphasis is placed on the development of the filing system and storage facilities. Contained in the report is a minimum list of materials needed in a science laboratory, based on a class of twelve students, examples of filing systems, methods of storage, and special equipment that would aid in storing of laboratory equipment. Findings and Conclusions: From a study of the survey of facilities in various high schools the author concluded there is a vital need for some standardized method of storing materials in the science laboratory, and the development of a standard filing system of written or printed materials used in the science laboratory of the small high school. In many of the laboratories the author visited, there was very little arrangement of the materials and storage facilities were usually inadequate. Many of the schools were in the process of refurnishing their laboratories with equipment to aid in teaching Physics and Chemistry.
