Web sites can get seniors up to speed - Dave Peyton, Tribune Media
As the graying of America continues to accelerate and more seniors are added to the population daily, opportunities for learning among the senior population increase, as well. In fact, there's never been a better time for the older generation to connect to activities suited to them, thanks to the World Wide Web.... If you're looking for education with a touch of adventure, try the Elderhostel Web site at http://www.elderhostel.org/. Venues for the programs, held year-round, range from university classrooms and laboratories in the U.S., Canada and more than 85 other countries, to national parks, museums, conference centers, aboard ship or on a train. The stress-free (no exams, no grades, no homework) program each year attracts about 200,000 hostellers worldwide.
