Class Experience

In this class, we will learn about how people in the past went to the toilet. We will look at toilets and toileting habits from the Roman period, from the Middle Ages and from the Victoria  Era. 

We will look at different images and accounts of toilets from these time periods and use a discussion based approach to come to conclusions about what the toilets can tell us about different time periods. The class will use a variety of primary and secondary sources to inform our discussion, and discussions will take a historical approach.

No prior knowledge is needed for this class - just an enthusiasm for all things yucky!!

Learning Goals

After this class, students will be able to:

Talk about toilets in the Roman Empire, the middle ages and in the Victorian Era.
Identify differences between how wealthy people pooped and how working class people pooped.
Express their opinion on historical artifacts.
