Coffeyville Community College hosts a workshop aimed at helping seniors feel more confident using everyday technology.
The Technology for Seniors class was held March 27th and focused on practical skills like using smartphones, email and social media platforms such as Facebook. The free session was led by Brandi Beeson, with help from student volunteers who provided one-on-one assistance throughout the workshop. Participants were encouraged to bring their own devices and questions, creating a hands-on learning environment tailored to individual needs. Student volunteers worked directly with attendees to troubleshoot issues and guide them through common tasks, helping build comfort with digital tools.
Organizers say feedback from participants was positive, with many appreciating the patience and support provided by the students. While no additional sessions are currently scheduled, the college says it hopes to offer similar workshops in the future.
