Object based learning with UCL's Eugenics and Biometrics Collection
A set of resources created by an ELEP project to support colleagues who are considering incorporating a visit to UCL’s Object Based Learning Laboratory and its Eugenics Collection into their teaching. The focus is on using the collection to teach around themes of ableism, class, racism, and sexism, rather than as a history lesson on eugenics.
Project reading list
This reading list is a work in progress and will be curated later in the project. It currently houses an array of resources split into four sections: the UCL eugenics inquiry; UCL resources relating to eugenics; external resources relating to eugenics; and resources relating to education. The list is accessible to everyone, but some links will only be accessible to UCL staff and students.
Find our reading list on the UCL Library Services website.
