Project scope
- What is the main goal for this project?
-
We would like to have an instructive video or learning program developed for seniors living in a retirement home setting on the use of technology, how to navigate the internet and social media. During the COVID period it has become paramount that programs for engagement are offered virtually as well as using technology as a vehicle to stay connected with family and friends and with the community as a whole. Students will brainstorm innovative ideas that can support seniors in learning how to use technology that is easy so use and understand. Students may need to pilot the learning program they created with some seniors residing in a Seasons Retirement Home to get feedback for the purpose of building a short innovate learning strategy to be shared with other seniors living in Seasons Retirement Homes.
