I’m participating in an engaging conversation in NextDoor with and about seniors struggling to access technology.
Doctors requiring usage of messaging and scheduling apps to communicate:
- phones which are constantly changing and operate differently between the types,
- dexterity and visual problems which make them even more difficult to interact with,
- hardware/connectivity/wifi challenges
Libraries sometimes offer drop-in tech help sessions. I wonder if we could use the STEAM Pathways center to benefit the folks needing help and also encourage our youth to come and volunteer to help these folks. The youth can show off their tech skills while practicing making human connections. Everyone wins.
