Chemistry collection

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A chemistry set is a collection of chemicals , equipment and other materials (models, diagrams, software ...) that in public or private schools implementing the chemistry teaching supported.

properties

Since some of the chemicals contained in a chemical collection are hazardous substances , the management of such a collection requires professional competence. B. can be guaranteed by a corresponding teaching qualification (1st and 2nd state examination in a natural science subject) or an equivalent degree. The school management is formally responsible for the chemistry collection . Local school laws and ordinances stipulate that the headmaster can transfer responsibility for the chemistry collection to a teacher, provided that there is the expertise to take over the management of the collection. One of the tasks of the collection management is to observe the guideline on safety in teaching (RiSU) and to keep a list of hazardous substances in accordance with TRGS 400, Section 5.8. Here, chemical management programs that are subject to a charge (e.g. D-GISS) or free of charge (e.g. risc-online, DeGINTU ) can be used. Practical help for managing a chemistry collection is available from the German Social Accident Insurance ( DGUV ) and the GDCh's chemistry teacher training centers .
