Learning technology doesn’t have to be confusing—or boring! Tech Savvy Seniors is a practical, hands-on program.

This session all about getting to know your computer or tablet. This is a safe space to try things out without pressure. We’ll take it step by step. There are no silly questions.


EVENT DETAILS:

Date: Thursday 19 November

Time: 10.15am-12.30pm

Location: Learning Lab, Level 2, Harry Bailey Memorial Library

Cost: FREE, bookings required. If you are unable to attend, please cancel you spot via Eventbrite or by calling the library so that someone else can attend.


At the end of this session, you will be able to:

1. Explain what computers and tablets are and list common things they can do.

2. Identify key physical features (screen, buttons, charging port, cameras).

3. Turn the computer or tablet on/off and unlock it.

4. Navigate using basic gestures (tablet) or mouse/ trackpad and keyboard (computer).

5. Adjust basic settings like brightness, text size and volume.


What you need to bring:

· Your own computer or tablet, preferably fully charged, along with any charging cables you may need.

Don’t have your own device? We’ll have devices available to use during the session. However, bringing your own device is recommended so you can practise on the technology you use every day.


Build your digital skills, ask questions and connect with others in a friendly, welcoming environment.
