Opis

This short, easy-to-understand book helps seniors work through mental and emotional barriers to embracing a tech-rich life, and presents basic information about useful tech devices that match their needs and interests. ----------- Are you hesitant to use a smartphone, computer, tablet, or ebook reader even though you see other seniors enjoying them? Do you feel confused about tech devices and unsure of how they might benefit you? Do you feel overwhelmed when you think about purchasing a device and learning how to use it? Is this what you've been telling yourself? "I'm too old." "I can't do it." "It's too difficult." "I don't like it. I don't want it. It's just not for me." "I'm a klutz--I'd break it." "I'm embarrassed to ask younger people for help." "I can't type." "I'm afraid." "I can't afford it." "I feel overwhelmed. I don't know where to start." As a senior and a technology enthusiast with a background in education, I've found a way to help other seniors defeat the self-talk barriers, discover new ways of connecting with people and information, and experience for themselves how technology can enrich their lives. Become a Tech-Active Senior is a short, easy-to-understand book that will: * Show you how to defeat the mental and emotional barriers caused by negative self-talk * Give you basic information about smartphones, computers, tablets, and e-readers while discussing their benefits * Offer resources you need in order to purchase a tech device and learn how to use it. Follow the advice in this book and you'll soon move from tech-timid, to tech-curious, to tech-smart. What's stopping you from experiencing a rewarding, tech-active life?
