Goals
& Objectives To develop a series of virtual reality based laboratory accidents that will impress upon participants the consequences of failing to follow safety laboratory practices. To instill participants with a vivid "memory" of laboratory accidents, thereby prompting a lifelong habit of safe laboratory practices. Ultimately to reduce the accident rate in the nation's laboratories, including teaching, research, professional, and medical labs, from the high school level to the industrial workplace. |

Project
Summary The basic premise of this project is that people will remember the experience of a laboratory accident much longer than any set of written rules. By providing this opportunity for students and other laboratory personnel to experience accidents in the relative safety of Virtual Reality it is our hope to impress upon then the importance of always following safety rules, and thereby to improve laboratory safety nationwide. Background safety information and external references are also provided in order to deliver a complete package. |
