Description: "This easy to use CD offers a wide range of interactive learning. Originally developed by the Scottish Schools Equipment Research Council (SSERC), and revised for use by Canadian science teachers, this CD-ROM is an excellent source of reference for the hazards associated with the safe use of chemicals in school chemistry. The typical information found in Material Safety Data Sheets is clearly presented and easily interpreted since educational applications are emphasized. It also integrates an inventory system for the management of chemicals. The CD contains information on over 600 chemicals, arranged in alphabetical order in the Chemicals List, which are likely to be used in school science courses. When a chemical is selected by name information is provided on the hazards and other properties of that substances which should be adopted when using that chemical. Over 15,000 cross referencing links."--STAO website (www.stao.org)
