Sending an email, talking to relatives via Skype – this is no trouble for young people today. But what about the elderly?
Sending an email, talking to relatives via Skype – this is no trouble for young people today. But what about the elderly? Should they ask their grandchildren to teach them computer literacy? But will they have enough patience to teach? The central district library offers a way out of this situation. The computer course "Web Pensioner" – this is a project developed last year by the library marketing department.
Inna Yushko teaches computer literacy here in individual sessions. A session lasts two hours and costs 20 thousand rubles. If you cannot grasp all the knowledge in this time, you can sign up for another one. Moreover, the "student" chooses the topic of the "lesson" themselves. This approach allows those who wish to master a computer to do so at their own level: some improve their skills, while others start from scratch. Someone wants to find lost friends on social networks, someone wants to communicate with relatives, and someone even wants to compile their own collection of recipes or embroidery patterns using the internet. By the way, 14 people have already completed these courses. You can join them by signing up for classes in advance, which are held on Mondays from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and on Tuesdays and Fridays from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
