People have different views as to whether it is better for government to spend its budgets for training older individuals to use the modern gadgets with the increasingly role of technology in our life. While there are obvious benefits to having more people in society who are adept at working with computers, I believe that teaching this type of population would be challenging for practical and emotional factors.
When elderly citizens can take advantage of computers, they with limited physical activities and health issues may engage in social media platforms like Facebook Telegram, which helps them to stay in touch with close friends, family members and casual acquaintances regardless of geographical barriers. As a result, they may reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness, thereby improving quality of their life. This can ultimately expand the time they live to share their experiences to young generation. For example, my grandfather who took part in training program by the government to capitalize on computers currently offer courses online for everyone who want to learn mathematics, especially school-aged children. Therefore, this evolutionary investment is likely to beneficial for government.
However, in my view, difficulties of tutoring older people to get advantage of technological devices should also be taken into account. When they are trained to use computers, it may also bring certain challenges, especially for those with limited physical abilities and cognitive issues. Many older adults may struggle to fully grasp modern technology, which could lead to frustration and stress. For instance, seniors with declining memory or reduced motor skills might find it difficult to navigate social media platforms like Facebook or Telegram. As a result, they could become even more isolated if they are unable to keep up with the fast-changing nature of technology, which can undermine their confidence.
In conclusion, although training for the usage of computers of elders may become effectively for government in terms of educational benefits, it is essential to recognize its serious problems associated with their mental well-beings.
