Comments:	If you would like to extend your digital skills, broaden your social networks, share your stories creatively, and connect with people on social media, Social Seniors is for you. Social Seniors comprises 6 weekly 2 hour workshops to introduce you to a range of simple tools that you can use to produce short films and share local stories with people with similar interests. Our experience is that seniors with the following interests have been interested in joining the program: • Using social media to connect with family and friends • Genealogy / family history • Walking groups or local history • Creative writing or Photography • Preparing “this is your life” presentations for milestone family events and eulogies As well as sharing “digital stories” and discovering social opportunities, this program will help you address any concerns you may have around online privacy, safety and security.
Additional Comments and Prerequisite:	You do not need to have extensive online experience – just a willingness to learn! We will be using Zoom to conduct this course. Two separate small group courses will be conducted, grouped by interest area. You will use your own digital device - an internet-enabled Smartphone, iPad or Tablet - and we will assist you to set up an email address to get started with Zoom if required. (If you do not have your own device or an internet connection we may be able to assist you with a loan device: please enquire.) The course will be facilitated by a U3A Network Victoria volunteer, with assistance from leaders in our club.
