    The Aim of this study is to examine what kind of interpretations children make from the pictures on social media, and what kind of cultural references they find in them. The theoretical framework is built by defining the terms social and visual culture and multiliteracy. Social and visual culture includes social media, social media influencers and social media pic-tures. Multiliteracy includes media literacy and visual literacy. This is the first study conducted about this subject. The study is a part of the MOI- development project. The study is conducted as a qualitative research where the data for this study is collected by theme interview. There was a total of 17 interviews. Out of the 17 interviews conducted, 4 were ruled out. The remaining 13 interviews are analyzed in my thesis. 18 pictures were used to support the interview and make it a bit game like. These pictures contained five social media portraits. Children were asked to catego-rize the pictures and tell more about the categories. The methodology of analysing the material was content analysis. The findings were that the children divide thei attention based on the thoughts and emotions conjured by appearances, poses and images. At first, it was easiest for them to grasp on to clear exterior attributes, such as hair, expressions, or colors of the image. The remarks focused more on the backgrounds and the explanations of people in the images. Much of the focus of the in-terpretation was in the world crated by the children. There were a lot of cultural interpretations as well. The appearance, profession and social media of the characters were processed also.

In the curriculum of basic education (2014) there are skills of seven cross-competence areas and their teaching and learning objectives are rising from the needs of a changed world. These emphasize, for example, thinking, multiliteracy, ICT competence, participation and cultural competence. The purpose of the literary survey is to create an idea of what criteria and meanings can be found for the use of photos taken by the children in the field of visual culture. The children of this literary survey are between six and 19 years old. The research questions focus on how the photos taken by the children were perceived as relevant in the field of visual culture and what were the pedagogical arguments that can be seen in the photos taken by children / pupils in the teaching There were several researches in the field of visual culture where the children were the photographers. In some surveys the children had no voice and the researchers had made conclusions about the meaning of the photos by themselves. The focus was on those researches where the child was in a key position and actually had a voice. The Visual Culture researches I have chosen are the following: Granö, 2006; Young & Barrett, 2001; Nyyssölä, 2015; Vesalainen, 2013; Noroviita, 2013 and Setälä, 2012. On the second research question I try to answer by the basic education curriculum (the aim of cross-competence) and by the researches which are Kairavuori & Kynäslahti, (2014) and Hyvärinen & Särkelä, (2015). Based on this literary survey shows that there are lot of literature about visual culture. The surveys also showed that photographs taken by children can be used to raise the children’s views and the perceptions to different phenomenon. The activity also enables dialogue and the role of specialist. In addition the activity was able to support the experience of involvement. On the other hand the literature shows that photographing is not always the best method for the survey. In teaching we should always find the pedagogical criteria from the curriculum that the teacher has to follow.
