On 29 August, 2015, Pudak Scientific held the Advance Science Laboratory Management Workshop for teachers and laboratory assistants. This workshop was attended by 14 teachers and laboratory assistants of West Java and Jakarta.
The speaker for this workshop was Dr. Galuh Yuliani, M.Si., a chemistry lecturer of Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia Bandung. Dr. Galuh Yuliani emphasized about the importance of security standardization in laboratory and shared laboratory experiences in other countries. This session was ended by question and answers and group photo.
Workshop was continued by consolidation of laboratory management materials, particularly the ones form the Basic Level of Science Laboratory Management Workshop, by having several Science Laboratory simulations that included:
- Simulation of equipment and material storage
- Simulation of conflict management
- Simulation of simple waste management
- Simulation of handling earthquake and fire in laboratory
Participants were very enthusiastic in following this session, particularly during the equipment and material storage and handling earthquake and fire simulations. Through this simulation participants were expected to have real experience on the material presented, thus they will have better understanding.
Participants were also invited to have physics experiments, lead by Toho Fervin M. S., S.Pd and the biology experiment, lead by M. Ikhsan Pahlawan, S.Pd. The experiments conducted included:
- Calibration of 311 Scale
- Usage and Setting of Ticker Timer
- Blood Type Test Experiment
- Basic Surgery Technique Experiment
We hope that after attending this experiment teacher will better manage and lead learning process in laboratory, which is in accordance with Pudah Scientific’s mission to actively involved in improving Indonesian education.
