مستخلص: In "Digital Immigrants: Leveraging the Technology Acceptance Model to Increase Digital Literacy in Older Adults," the authors delve into the vital importance of digital literacy for supporting older adults in living independently and staying connected with their community. They explore how the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), which emphasizes the perceived usefulness of technology, can be effectively used to encourage older adults to embrace digital tools. The article highlights that well-designed technology training can do much more than help older adults live independently; it can also significantly enhance their connections with family, friends, healthcare providers, and community services. Additionally, it offers practical guidelines for creating effective technology training programs that empower older adults to lead more connected, independent, and enriched lives.
