“…Previous research that looked to see if OAs preferred instructional videos or text showed that OAs' performance could be improved more by using video training than it can using text training (Gramß & Struve, 2009). However, the use of verbally redundant material also can be a useful tool to lead to the higher performance for OAs when using a multimedia training system (Pachman & Ke, 2012).…”

This poster reports preliminary findings from a research project, which attempts to suggest guidelines for developing an older‐adult‐friendly online tutorial for Facebook. An existing online tutorial for Facebook, Facebook 101, was analyzed to provide a more practical discussion. Weaknesses and improvement points of the tutorial were identified based on the literature regarding principles of design and training for older adults (OAs). Moreover, hierarchical task analyses (HTAs) were conducted to re‐design lessons (i.e., content of the tutorial) for popular Facebook activities by OAs. This poster includes a demo version of the OA‐friendly online tutorial for Facebook by reflecting the findings and experiences from the study. This paper also outlines future research directions.

“…For instance, transferring between video and text for training was a controversial issue. Even though previous studies have examined the effectiveness of multimedia‐based learning (Gramß & Struve, 2009; Pachman & Ke, 2012; Xie, 2011), much work is still needed, especially when it comes to OAs.…”

“…Older technology literates who have positive attitudes towards technology can be used as role models for older learners. Video-based instructions provided by role models have been found to enhance knowledge acquisition among older adults learning the use of technological [8]. Similarly, there is evidence that even social comparisons with younger adults can improve older adults' performance, as long as it is within a positively stereotyped domain, like solving crosswords [14].…”

Effective technology innovation process management in the context of active healthy ageing has the potential to improve older adults' quality of life, allowing them to maintain their independence and age in their own homes for longer. But as older adults significantly differ from the general population in technology use and its impact on their quality of life, tools are needed that (1) involve this target group into the innovation process, as well as (2) capture the diverse needs of technology for various stakeholders involved in this process, are needed. This paper presents the framework called Technology Experience Café (TEC), developed within the European project SIforAGE, answering exactly this need. Detailed information on the methodology and its implementation in five sites, in four different countries across Europe, focusing on participating stakeholders, general design of the TEC, and used evaluation tools, is provided. Preliminary results show, that (1) the target group's perception of the TEC as a framework was thoroughly positive and TECs had a positive impact on older adults' technology related attitudes and (2) that stakeholders' benefits affiliated with their involvement in the TECs are manifold. Implications and limitations are discussed.

“…Bruder, Blessing and Wandke [18] developed a successful task oriented elearning program to teach mobile use to people between 50 and 77 years. Another study showed that videoinstructions were more beneficial than text based instructions for people of 60-75 years of age towards knowledge-acquisition in an interactive system [19].…”

Using a laptop or tablet computer can be challenging for senior users, but using these devices can facilitate communication with family and care-givers. The goal of the current study is to get more insight in how to instruct and train senior users to use the keyboard of a tablet computer that is specifically designed for seniors (Compaan). Research has suggested that addressing errors and showing how to correct these errors can have positive effects on the learning process. Two series of video instructions were developed. In the first series, it was explained how to use the tablet computer without addressing potential errors.In the second series, potential errors were addressed. Forty seniors (75 -97 years of age) participated in this study. The participants were asked to familiarize themselves with the Compaan, with the help of one of the series of instructional videos. Their learning progress, task effectiveness, and their self-efficacy and satisfaction levels were measured. The results showed that most participants were interested and motivated to learn to use the tablet computer. Participants who watched the videos in which potential errors were addressed performed somewhat better than the other group.
