Smartphone Seniors 「耆」妙手機達人*

Description

[This is a Community Service under Community GO]
Smartphones have been a huge part in our daily life. It is hard to live without them nowadays while many older people are struggling to keep up with the new trend and can't enjoy the convenience brought by technology. Partnering with Chinese YMCA Chai Wan Neighbourhood Elderly Centre, HKUST volunteers will guide older people to use smart phones. Through games and role play, the older people can also learn about scams online and connect with the younger generation and wider social world.

智能手機已徹底改變了我們的生活方式,但亦對很多不諳使用手機的長者日常生活造成不便。現招募義工協助香港中華基督教青年會柴灣長者鄰舍中的長者學習使用智能手機,讓他們生活便利一點,並透過玩遊戲辨識網絡陷阱,及加强與年青人的溝通。
