Resumo: |
That the elderly people aim to be up to date with the handling of smartphones and tablets is nothing new. Especially those who return to the University, and who are aware, even if it’s by their fellow students, of the advantages of using, for example, applications that enable everything from exercising the mind with games, such as a crossword application, to facilitate everyday activities, How to locate addresses, call a taxi, get a movie / theater ticket, pay a bill, make national and international calls at no cost. After all, as it has been asserted that humans have always subjected to multiple "devices" in the Agambian sense, why would the simple condition of age alter the competence of the elderly or prevent new skills in dealing with mobile devices, that is, with mobile-portable technologies of smartphones and Tablets. In this direction, this masters research in qualitative approach, invests in gerontological reflections of interdisciplinary character and social focus, that ground professional practices of this researcher in the field of the new technologies with the elderly. And under the especially Agambian theoretical-methodological orientation, among other theorists of aging and the field of digital technologies, and based on the researcher's participant observation (including with field journal records) on the advancement of the elderly, oriented towards the acquisition of Hands-on smartphone and tablet handling skills. It is a study involving thirty elderly people, thus, the research is at the interface between the area of aging and the new mobile technologies. The aim is to offer a practice of learning to the elderly, who can, using some strategies or facilitating techniques - including consolidated in the Online Tutorial created by this researcher - to exercise digital technologies such as the use of applications in their smartphones, or mobiles, and tablets, that facilitate their daily activities, with timely gain of efforts, time, and costs, besides bringing them subjective benefits, for a better quality of life. Examples in this sense are the evidence that the simple age standard does not prevent the elderly from gaining skills in the efficient handling of their mobiles, thus refuting any prejudicial, generalizing and discriminatory allegation, as a consequence, of not updating the elderly in the face of technological innovations. This leaves us to say that the elderly can become proficient in the use of their mobile applications, including the exchange of facilitating media experiences to the daily activities among their fellow students, to the point of talking about it with grandchildren and children, reinforcing Intergenerational relations |
