摘要：

Senior adults can use computers for entertainment, enhancement of daily functions, education, creative endeavors, and business obligations. Computer training programs enable seniors to increase productivity, learn shills, enhance self-esteem, and boost short-term memory. Electronic mail, online services, and the Internet encourage socialization and the sharing of experiences and information. Disabled and ill seniors can use technology that recognizes and adapts to their special needs. Senior adults are capable of using computers at work and at home, and they need opportunities to develop computer shills.
