ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY FOR SENIORS
Come & Learn How to Make the Computer Easier to Use!
August 30, 2010
10AM to 1PM
at
TECHConnection at FRA
35 Haddon Ave.
Shrewsbury, NJ
Seniors with age related impairments use assistive technology, such as screen readers, screen magnification, or track balls and other alternatives if using a mouse is difficult. Many also take advantage of some of the built-in accessibility options that are built into every computer that make it easier for them to see, hear and use their computers.
Using a computer can help seniors find new ways to re-engage with the world! Connecting with grand-children, playing games to help with memory and cognitive function, finding childhood friends, ordering groceries online, medical research, and "how to" videos you can find on You Tube.
