Be Connected grant creates more tutoring opportunities at the libraries

“We’re now working through the waiting list, and we continue to welcome requests from anybody over 50 who would like to participate.” The grant requires that all learners complete at least 30 minutes of online learning using the Be Connected self-learning portal. “It’s important to have some general digital literacy, but most people then have very specific areas of interest that they want to pursue,” the Shire spokesperson said. “By combining the initial structured lesson with an unstructured, learner-directed session to follow, we hope to meet the varied needs of our older community, and encourage greater digital inclusion.” Sessions are available at both the Margaret River and Augusta Libraries, and can offer assistance with PCs, laptops, tablets and mobile devices.
