On Uusimaa Day on May 21st, dive into the world of memes and create your own memes with the Uusimaa theme.
Meme School is aimed at middle school and upper secondary school students. Short videos and related tasks examine memes as a phenomenon, consider their relationship to mental health, and learn how memes can be used to participate in social discussion. During the lesson, students will also have the opportunity to make their own memes with the Uusimaa theme.
The Meme School materials are designed so that even a teacher who is not familiar with memes can easily grasp the topic. Have fun with memes!
Post your moods and memes on social media #uusimaaday or #uusimaapäivä.
