Glass eyes from the Galton Collection

The Galton Collection is an excellent resource for university groups who wish to use objects for teaching practicals. The diverse subjects and historical firsts allow for object based learning in a wide range of subjects. To date, objects from the collection have featured in formal and informal teaching sessions in Crime Science, English and History departments at UCL. Visiting groups from other universities are also welcome to schedule introductory or bespoke sessions featuring objects from the collection.

Please contact the curator to discuss and organize teaching sessions using the collection.
