It is an idea I touch on that there other options to say Explorer, but just leave it at that. However reading the posts on here, a bit of jargon busting for them may prove useful ![]() |

My next door neighbour (late 60's)asked my son last week if he could show her the basics. Here's what she wanted to know:
E-mail. Setting up an address etc. Sending. (He warned her of spam and never giving out bank details etc) The weather forecast in Eastbourne. She has a caravan there, but others may have villas around the globe. Reading the papers on line. E-bay. Buying and selling. Setting up a pay-pal account. He said he could have done 8 hours on this!! BBC gardening website. Good luck ![]() |

![]() An entertaining thread (speaking as a 64 year old who would rather hear the Beach Boys sing about surfing than get called a silver surfer). Some great ideas - Pookas examples are top notch - never get tired of watching Youtube - and N Herts Eagle is spot on with help in using Skpe, no mention of how to use a webcam here, that would important for some people. Has anyone mentioned lPlayer? That's excellent - whether it's BBC TV or radio or one of the commercial stations. Forget about powerpoint, a bit of research on your audience wouldn't go amiss as the more you can get them to help one another the quicker they'll learn. Best of luck. |

Cheers RoB and I like the suggestion re Iplayer .. going to be doing the research with them hopefully next week..basically it is a course for them , and there is so much I could cover, so best if I concentrate on what they actually want. Only going to work in groups of four or so, so it maybe possible that I can tailor it to each group. Should be fun...I hope!! |

The thing to put over is that The Internet PC's Laptops etc in general is not the domain of checked shirt jean and jacket not shaved for a few days with a bag slung over like a school satchel types (Like a lot like to do to make out they are sooooo important) its actually a piece of piss.
Oh and a few spelling and typo errors really dont matter
