I wasn't sure how my students would embrace making their own memes. Neither was I sure of the quality of the end result in terms of it being an assessment of their thinking. When you raise the bar and include culturally relevant media, students rise to the challenge. Below are several of the memes created by my students. Students first followed the scientific method to analyze memes. I provided 6 memes from which they had to hypothesize what characteristics make a high quality meme. Then they searched the internet for additional memes that supported or refuted their hypothesis. After this analysis, they summarized their findings with memes in general. There were some thoughtful and insightful findings by my students through their analysis. Finally they were required to make a collection of 3 memes to communicate their point of view on evolution (pro or con). I posted a few below. I wish I could post more but some students (who created the best memes) have restrictions on media release. Enjoy these. Scientifically yours, Nadene
