Digital Technology for the Ageing Population: Perspectives from the Younger Generation

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The paper investigates digital technology for the ageing population from the perspectives of the younger generation. Based on the inter-generational mutual interaction, sharing and enrichment in the use of digital technology, our study involved the students from the Faculty of Informatics and Management, University of Hradec Kralove as the representatives of the younger generation in reviewing the use of digital technology for the elderly, understanding their needs and examining their digital literacy. Qualitative research was applied in the study. The students were divided into three focus groups, taking different approaches to investigating the topic. The importance of digital technology for the well-being of the elderly was highlighted, and the utilization of ICT according to their usage was reviewed. It is revealed that digital literacy of the elderly has become a burning issue. They faced difficulties in meeting basic needs, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our study also showed how the elderly and younger generations can benefit from the mutual cooperation. © 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
