I use J.Chem.Ed. articles for my risk assessment exercises. I usually have the students work in groups of 2 or 3 and choose a few articles that are consistent with the course they are taking and have a variety of hazards.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Examples of risk assessments for lab procedures?
I have the opportunity next month to do a lab safety training for a group of undergrad students who are involved in a variety of kinds of laboratory research. Of the 3 hours I have, I hope to include 20 to 30 minutes to do a sample lab safety risk assessment for a simple chemical-oriented procedure they may have some experience with, either in the research or classroom environment. I wonder if anyone has specific suggestions for procedures that work well in this context as a risk assessment exercise. I'd like to have it complicated enough to have some unexpected results (e.g. gloves aren't need in step 3-5, but are in 1 and 2) while being able to cover it in 30 minutes or less.
Thanks for any suggestions about this.
