"Working to relieve poverty through social inclusion and education"
Know Your Gizmo
Free assistance for seniors using digital devices.
Technology is transforming the way we connect, learn, and share, making it easier than ever to access information and stay in touch with loved ones. For seniors, mastering digital devices like smartphones, tablets, and computers can make everyday tasks simpler and more enjoyable.
The Know Your Gizmo program is designed to help seniors make the most of their technology. Whether you want to learn how to use your smartphone, upload photos, or connect with family on social media, this free program offers practical, hands-on support in a relaxed setting.
During weekly sessions, local students from Wodonga Senior Secondary College and Tallangatta College will guide you through getting the most out of your devices. These one-hour, face-to-face sessions are a chance to learn at your own pace and ask questions about anything you’d like to explore. Bring along your smartphone, tablet, camera, or laptop—any device you’re eager to understand better.
What You’ll Learn:
Stay connected with family and friends online.
Upload and share photos, and create social media accounts.
Navigate GPS for easier travel planning.
Discover helpful apps for everyday tasks.
The program, which has seen great success in schools like Wodonga Senior Secondary College and Tallangatta College, pairs students with seniors, creating a rewarding learning experience for everyone involved. Thanks to support from the Department of Family and Community Services, the program will continue expanding into 2025, helping even more seniors gain digital confidence.
