Abstract
Learning in a chemistry laboratory has been believed to be able to provide students with more understanding than learning only through textbooks. However, there are many potential hazards to be considered in activities in chemical laboratories. The lack of knowledge and experience of first-year chemistry students causes the possibility of accidents in the chemical laboratory higher. Therefore, chemistry laboratory safety videos were developed and validated by experts. Data was collected using a questionnaire, documentation, and interview. The results of the assessment and expert input are implemented in the developed video.
Keywords: Chemical laboratory safety, videos, pre-lab activities
