Description Version 1 – An image which is currently a topic of conversation among the participants is analysed. Version 2 – The image to be analysed is selected in advance.
Together the participants search for the image in order to find its origin. To do so, take a screenshot of the image. Search for it using Google’s reverse image search. Based on the publication date, search for the oldest image. Find answers: Why was the image posted originally? What was it supposed to express? In which context is it used now? What should it express now?
Analyse and discuss why the image upsets people: What does it trigger? Why are so many people sharing it? What does it trigger in me personally? What can I do? |
