Don't forget the upcoming Silver Surfer's Day which is part of the UK Adult Learner's Week ...
Silver Surfer's Day is a national event that is intended to promote the positive impact that information communication technologies (generally the PC and Web) can have on the lives of older people. It also aims to encourage older people who are not computer literate to get to grips with communication technology, through a series of events that allow people to try new technologies or take more formal classroom based activities (The website for 2008 is not yet available, however last year's site is still around).
The way to make sure you receive all the free resources as they're published (Event Planning Guide, Publicity Guide, catchy little jargon-free downloadable 'crib-sheets' on everything from the basics of computer operation to i-player and blogging, and more...) is to enter your email address in the e-zine sign-up slot on http://www.silversurfersday.org/. This way you'll be guided through the new website from the moment it goes live in mid-March.
