Year 7 IT – Helping Others to Use Devices
Year 7 IT – Helping Others to Use Devices
On Friday, Year 7C had the great pleasure of visiting residents at IRT Woodlands Retirement Village, as part of their Information Technology program. Once the introductions had taken place, students and residents chatted about technology. Residents discussed how they used inkwells and slate boards and students demonstrated and explained some of the technology they currently use such Fitbits, Youtube and language translator apps.
Both were equally impressed with what each shared and many of the residents have requested to be buddied up with the students. On our next visit, students will show them how to operate certain features on their phones and devices.
Students had a wonderful time and are looking forward to going back to help residents and share more stories. Students will visit IRT Woodlands again on Friday 2nd March and Friday 23rd March.
