Addressing the concerns of older individuals without family support:
Family and friends can be invaluable resources in the learning process, offering guidance and support when navigating new technologies.
Intergenerational learning can bridge gaps and make the experience fun. As one expert notes, "Using technology to engage families can strengthen home-school relationships" [1].
For those without family support:
Join community groups or classes focused on technology
Seek mentorship programs at local libraries or senior centers
Utilize online forums and virtual communities for peer support
Remember, "It is teams of networked people, supported by new technology, that are our new, more powerful 'weapons of change'" [3].
