Science Lab Workstation – Take Care of Cleanliness of Students Outside with Mode

Posted by MONSAM Portable Sinks on August 26th, 2019

It’s been proven time and again that taking time to learn outdoors is beneficial for children because as it opens up many great opportunities for teachable moments all while helping students appreciate their natural environment. This is also the reason why many educators are fond of taking their classes on outdoor excursions and field trips. Confining your science lessons to the classroom or the laboratory could mean wasted opportunities to reap the benefits of outdoor learning. While taking your science class outdoors does have its unique challenges, the advantages far outweigh the trouble of setting up a safe and controlled environment where children can gain more learning than inside the classroom. After all, you don’t always have to take them outdoors. A few sessions that will shake up the monotony of the four walls of your usual classroom should be enough to keep them interested in your lessons. Investing in an outdoor science lab workstation should be first on your list when exploring this approach to teaching and learning.

Science lab workstations come in a wide variety of shapes, forms, and sizes. When shopping for an outdoor lab, it is critical that you know exactly what to look for in a mobile workstation, especially since you won’t get to keep the station in one place. Mobile workstations are great for experiments on the go and must therefore be equipped for such functionalities. One of the first things you should consider when shopping for a mobile station is the equipment’s framework. Science workstations and lab tables are typically made out of steel or solid wood frames, both of which have their own pros and cons for outdoor and mobile use. Steel-frame workstations are more ideal if you expect heavy use, but solid-wood also makes for a durable option, not to mention a stylish choice, if you want a classic look to your lab environment.

Choose lab workstations that are complete with everything you need for a functional outdoor lab station, like an easy to use and fully equipped sink and/or gas fixture. It is also the best to go for a unit that is made out of materials and resins that are resistant to regular wear and tear, especially since you will be working a lot with chemicals that can be harsh on certain types of materials. Other features you should look for in a mobile work station include storage for flexibility, casters for mobility, and safety features for ADA and general safety compliance.
