What do you Meme?

Description

As a special Friday exploration, and as the penultimate end to our Visual Literacy unit from the last term, the class explored memes! They were surprised to learn that meme's existed before the internet, as to them they have always been an online format. We went over a brief history of modern memes, and worked on a definition of "meme." Then we played a game, the results of which are linked below. The game was a method for fostering discussion to explain the how and why of memes, and apply both our learned and innate knowledge of visual communication.
