Tech Savvy Seniors - Introduction to Android Tablets - Sydney Course

Tablets are a revolutionary new way of accessing the Internet, playing games and communicating. They can do a lot of the things your computer can do, and they can be used or carried pretty much anywhere. This workshop is your first step into the world of tablets. It’s for people who have never used a tablet but are interested in finding out what they can do. You don’t need to have a lot of PC or mobile smartphone experience – although smartphone experience can help, since tablets are essentially super-sized phones.
