LESSON STRUCTURE – Senior Friendly, Trainer Friendly
The senior-friendly lesson structure includes:
-
Set-up activities to prepare students for learning.
-
Core activities to teach the website features and how to navigate
to them.
-
Practice activities to let students apply web skills they have
learned.
-
Reinforcement activities to summarize and reiterate the
learning.
The trainer-friendly lesson plan features:
-
An easy-to-read layout.
-
Short, well-defined segments of teaching material per page.
-
Clearly marked, scripted transition boxes at the top of each page
announcing the next learning point and ensuring a smooth transition
between segments.
-
Suggested teaching times for each skill.
-
Time checks and optional stopping points, offering flexibility in
total class length.
-
Helpful sidebars, providing teaching and navigation tips and
describing the purpose for activities.
-
Meaningful icons.
About the Scripted Transition Boxes
[IMAGE: page with Scripted Transition box circled]
This lesson plan uses a combination of scripted and descriptive
sections. The colored, scripted transition boxes which appear at
the top of each page of the lesson plan are designed as
“anchor points,” marking the end of one part of the
lesson and the start of another. It is important to convey the
content in these transition boxes, although you may use your own
wording as you become more familiar with the material. The steps
that follow each scripted box are descriptive. Move through them
according to your personal training style.
This approach is useful in maintaining lesson focus and keeping
trainers and students on track. It also makes the lesson plan easy
to use.
Important Note
In
the discussions of health issues that may occur during class,
refrain from offering medical advice or advocating specific
treatments, physicians, hospitals, insurance plans, etc. Also,
discourage this type of activity among students. Always emphasize
that students should consult their health care providers about any
medical information they may hear about in class or find on the
Internet.
Icons Used in the Lesson Plan

needed)
-

REACHING THE OLDER STUDENT
To help your students grasp, apply, and retain the skills and
information they are taught, be sure to:
-
Proceed slowly through the lesson. Some older adults will take
longer than younger people to get the knack of using the Internet.
If you move too quickly, they may not be able to keep up. They need
time to practice and to absorb new information.
-
Circulate to make sure students are following you. Check
students’ screens frequently to make sure they are not lost.
If possible, arrange to have one or more classroom assistants work
with students individually during the lesson.
-
Speak slowly and repeat information as often as necessary.
Don’t make assumptions based on students’ age. They are
learning new skills, and they will probably need to hear the
information more than once to retain it.
-
Encourage questions. Pause frequently to ask if there are
questions. After soliciting questions, allow at least 10 seconds
for students to formulate them.
-
Create a senior-friendly environment. It is important to read Quick
Tips for a Senior Friendly Computer Classroom for help on setting
up the classroom to accommodate the needs of older adults.
These training techniques from the lesson can also help you be
successful:
-
The use of scripted transition boxes to announce each new segment
helps the class stay focused and on track.
-
Presenting material in small, well-defined steps makes it easier
for students to grasp new skills and information.
-
Frequent summarizing and hands-on practice helps students retain
what they’ve learned.
-
Handouts and printed screen shots help students understand and
recall what is taught.
-
Group discussions and short dialogues help put students at
ease.
