Re: professional learning program for laboratory assistant staff
Hi I attended the first course back in February when I had been a lab assistant for 18months and found it very helpful. As it was the first official training from the det I was encouraged by my school to go. I bought the new working in science book (this is essential for the course). It has a CD rom...

Re: chemical disposal
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has heard anymore info on the DET chemical collection that is supposed to be done this year?
I have lots of old containers and don't know whether to hang on to them or orgaise a pick up through the school.

Re: ID & Password for access to CSIS/Chemwatch
Hi Sue,
Thanks for your all your instructions but I still can't get in. I don't know if it is my lack of ability in understanding the site or
the complicated nature of it. I have been put onto someone else through the DET so hopefully I get some answers. It is good to know I am not alone

HELP
I need to put new wicks in the spirit lamps. The ones with the metal screw top and the wick is so big and I can't seem to get it in. Do I burn the wick first or cut it somehow?

Re: Back to the grind stone
What great news Liz. From someone who has a nice clean prep room and labs plus big windows to look out of with plenty of ventilation it makes your day all the more brighter and you enjoy going to work. I hope you settle in easily and the staff welcome you with open arms.

Re: USE BY DATES
Hi, I don't have anything in writing but going back to Glen Sawle(Chief education officer, Science) at his workshop earlier in the year, he said that solutions should only be kept for 2 years from date of preparation. Of course as Sue said if sediment and colour change then toss out earlier. I did h...

Hi all, My headteacher has decided that he wants yr 11 to have a physics textbook this year. We have one problem only 39 copies of Macmillian Physics 1 (2000 edition) to go around 47 students.

pickled brains
Hi all,
hope you are having a good day I need a recipe for pickled brains for a Bio dissection. I can't remember what quantities of what solutions are needed and I seem to have lost the recipe. This solution makes the brains firmer and easy to slice Now what was I having for dinner?

Re: Colours of MSDS's
Hi, I agree with Noona on the MSDS printing. I was at the same course and this is what we were told for DET schools. The stocktake of all chemicals in the school has to be in a hard copy form and kept in the office so if there is a fire, the fire brigade can see what chemicals are stored in each are...
