The Academy for Lifelong Learning (A.L.L.) on Cape Cod in Massachusetts
has partnered up with Computers for Seniors. The two organizations are
offering a joint series for the A.L.L. Tech Thursdays program. Each session,
limited to 15 participants, cost $15 or $50 for the series, and is three
hours long, from 9:00 a.m. till noon. Here are the topics they are offering
this winter, taken from their December 2006 newsletter.
Online Banking – Stop storing cancelled checks
in a shoebox. Stop writing checks to pay bills each month. Learn to
keep a check register, write checks and reconcile monthly statements
online. Several Cape Cod banks’ web sites will be explored.
Shopping with Ease Online – Avoid driving and
avoid long walks in the mall. Browse at your leisure. Shopping is a
short walk to the computer. In this “hands on” workshop,
participants will explore favorite shopping places and learn how to
shop online, buy online and receive purchases without leaving home.
Online Travel Planning and Booking – Explore
travel options and learn to make travel arrangements online. Learn Internet
travel trends, travel search and booking engines for flights, hotels,
cars, cruises and more. Participants are encouraged to bring favorite
travel web sites to share and try out for ease of use.
Everything Google – Explore the expanding Google
search engine and its associated free tools in the “World of Google.”
Basic search engines will be demonstrated plus, “hands on”
practice of how to take advantage of many little known search techniques
to simplify your life.
