Journal of Chemistry: Education Research and Practice · 2021

Chemistry laboratory instructions do not only provide students with practical experiences but also teaches students on hazardous materials/chemicals as well as laboratory safety signs so as to prevent or minimize harm in the laboratory. Consequently, the purpose of this research study was to investigate Rivers undergraduate students’ awareness level of safety signs in Chemistry laboratory. To this end, three research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. The study adopted analytic descriptive survey design. A total of 60 year three undergraduate students studying Chemistry Education (B.Sc. Ed) and Pure Chemistry (B.Sc.) were randomly drawn from three universities namely; University of Port Harcourt (Uniport), Rivers State University (RSU) and Ignatius Ajuru University of Education (IAUE) with each university contributing 20 students. A well validated and researchers constructed test instrument, titled, Chemistry Laboratory Test on Safety Signs (CLTSS) which had an internal reliability index of 0.94 via Cronbach Alpha was used for data collection in the study. The relevant data collected were subjected to simple percentages, mean, standard deviation, t-test and analysis of
