| 7-Overview |
In Yoshida Town, there are many elderly people who are worried about how to use smartphones, so there is a high need for them. As digitalization progresses, the number of elderly people who cannot keep up with the trend will increase, and the isolation of those who are weak in IT will increase. To prevent this, students learn how to use smartphones and learn functions that are useful in their personal lives, such as communicating with family and friends who are far away . Many elderly people only use the phone and email, so I was able to teach them some interesting functions. ・Google Maps features such as ``destination search, transportation timetables, and aerial photography'' were very popular.・I can't remember Google Maps right away, so I think I'll have a reason to come to the NPO Center again. ・I had the official Uwajima City account registered on LINE. I think it was the most popular. From the participants ・I was surprised to find out that there are other ways to use it other than using the phone. ・I can't remember it at once I've heard people saying that and would like to hold the event again. |
