The main topic of the project is introducing seniors to the IT. We are focusing on different aspects of teaching/learning
process and also how to improve the functioning of elderly citizen in the Information Society.
IT skills have become “basic skills”. Without them it is very difficult to function in the modern world. Although in all
European countries the population of seniors is growing, their IT skills remain very low. There are very few initiatives in
Europe trying to solve this problem. Our project has the aim of trying to fill this gap.
We are planning a 3-years project which will reach 7 partners from 7 different countries in the last year.
The work will be centered about 7 seminars: one in each partner-country. Each partner is responsible for planning and
running one seminar devoted to one subtopic. Furthermore each partner organizes a few Internet activities for all
partners. Both teachers and senior students are involved in this activity.
We design and run a special webpage where we can collect and share information and experiences from all partners. We
are developing and testing an universal curriculum of the basic computer course for seniors.
