Model and Capacity Building for Intergenerational Digital Literacy Training for Older Adults in Hong Kong (SIE) 「長」青數碼加油站 — Fun Fun鐘需要你
Project Description 項目介紹
From the insights of the huge intergenerational digital literacy gap and yet crucial especially in the middle of global pandemic, we believe that incorporating the intergenerational interaction into the process of digital inclusion for older adults, can significantly increase the digital participation of older adults, narrow the generational digital gap, and improve physical and mental well-being as well as quality of life of both parties. Guided by the Theory of Learning (Illeris, 2003) and Senior Technology Acceptance Model (Chen & Chan, 2014), we will co-design and co-implement multifarious and differentiated ICT training courses and immersive extracurricular activities with pioneers in various sectors, where older adults can co-learn with their peers and the younger generation in joyful multigenerational-empowering learning setting. Finally, this programme aims at creating an evidence-based sustainable intergenerational digital inclusion training model by capitalizing validated research findings collected within, which can ultimately entail the institutional capacity building for different sectors in digital inclusion.
在疫情期間，長者使用手機、電腦或網路資源的能力愈發重要，我們認為長青共學的方式對提高長者的數碼參與、縮小代際數碼素養差距、以及優化雙方的身、心及生活質素有很大益處。該項目以理論為基礎，希望通過與各持份者共同設計多樣化、分級制的教學内容和提供“授後”學習活動，提升長者數碼科技學習樂趣、跨代互動和多代賦能。我們携手各界別的領航者共同參與項目執行，以期實現機構在數碼共融上的能力建設。我們還會不斷將收集的研究數據進行測試及校驗，編纂成冊，希望建立一個循証研究式的、可持續發展的、能與社會各界共享的跨代數碼共融訓練模型。
