I've thoroughly enjoyed our presentation at the Heritage at Lowman Homes. We were all able to find the location although it was very much off-campus. We got there around 2:30pm so that we could install AOL Instant Messenger on all of the computers.
Once the senior citizens arrived, we started our presentation promptly at 3pm. The computer lab was basically full on this day. They were all very easy going and eager to learn. The purpose of our presentation was to show them how to create screen names and start them chatting with the others in the lab as well as friends and family members.
Each person in my group read aloud from the presentation package while the rest of us helped the senior citizens on an individual level. At the end of the presentation, it was hard for them to leave because they were chatting away on the computers. It felt good to teach a group how to become savvy in today's technologically advanced world.

AOL who uses that anymore... Install Skype or something else. In fact just use facebook's chat feature. Skype gives the the opportunity to see and talk to their friends and family for free. AOL is old school. We also had to stay afterward to answering their questions for a while.
