The aim of this program is to help teach senior citizens how to utilize technology to its fullest potential. Each session would be on Sunday and the length of the session depends on the pace of each senior. They will be able to use their skills on an iPhone, iPad, and iPad Mini. As well as, they can bring their own devices (Android, Windows, etc), if they need extra assistance. Sessions will vary from teaching them the basics to skyping their grandkids. Also, it will help teach them how to relate with their grandkids and be the “cool grandparent.” It will also allow them to keep in contact with old friends by email or texting. Instruction will include everything from changing their wallpaper to taking a selfie. Instead of seniors being frustrated with technology, they can embrace it, being able to have information with a touch of a button. No matter how old or young, it is an essential skill in our society.
