Intro to Tablets (TSS English)
This free workshop is designed for those aged 60+ who would like to build the skills and confidence to use a tablet.
Looking (and working) a lot like a super-sized smartphone, tablets are a revolutionary new way of accessing the internet, playing games and communicating. Although they fit in your hands and are light enough to carry around, they can do a lot of the very same things your computer can do. You can browse the web, play games, send and receive emails - even type letters. It's all controlled using a touchscreen: to get things done, you simply touch the screen. Owning a tablet means you really can take your computer with you wherever you go; they're also convenient to use when sitting on a couch. You can even lie in bed and read a library book that you've loaded onto the tablet.
This workshop for beginners will teach you how to navigate your tablet to get the most out of your device, including how to use a touchscreen, getting connected to the internet, and downloading apps.
