Log On, Learn is an easy and friendly way to learn how to use computers (to do the
things you want).
Log On, Learn is a programme designed to 'buddy up' a participating transition-year
student with an older person from their local community to share skills with each
other.
The one to one nature of learning means that older people can learn about what they
want to, at their own pace. Lessons usually take place in the school room, where
the focus is on fun, sharing skills, stories and learning for life. The course suits
older people who want to know more about using computers or who may not have had
a chance to use a computer before. The transition year ‘teachers’ get a lot out
of the classes too, mixing with people who have a wealth of knowledge and wisdom,
and the time to share it.
