Description
This book investigates the topic of senior citizens and technology and is a university project done by four Communications students. They found that many seniors have embraced devices such as smartphones, tablets, eReaders, and laptops to enrich their lives. These seniors go on to discover the joy of sending text messages, composing emails, going online, and connecting with loved ones by video chat. Many seniors still need to be encouraged to embrace these technologies and as such, this book makes recommendations for senior-friendly devices, apps, programs, and accessories. Seniors are capable to learn and this book is meant to inspire them to explore new technology and also for those with seniors in their lives to support and encourage them every step of the way. The feature story is about a 99 year old man named Ron who learned to send text messages on his iPad, proving that no one is too old to learn.
