Sandra Flynn is a PhD researcher from Cork, is conducting a study on digital skills and lifelong learning amongst older adults in Ireland and is looking for participants.
The study aims to explore the experiences of older adults and lifelong learning, with specific focus on intergenerational exchanges and digital skills. Little is known about the concept of intergenerational learning in Ireland outside of formal learning environments. By taking part in this study your insights will help contribute to our understanding of the contribution intergenerational learning can make to lifelong learning and digital skills development of older adults.
Participants aged 55 years and over are invited to one of two parts as appropriate.
Part a) involves an anonymous online survey for those who access the Internet through any digital device. The survey takes no longer than 15 minutes to complete and may be accessed through this link: https://wp.me/p8OE8C-g8 Participants wishing to continue to an optional 45-minute interview with Sandra to share their experiences further, may enter their contact details at the end of the survey.
Part b) applies to those who do not access the Internet and would be interested in sharing their experiences with Sandra in a telephone interview. If you know anyone who you think may be interested please pass this information along and ask them to contact Sandra directly at 086-847 2348 to arrange an interview.
