Abstract
Ensuring that seniors possess adequate digital literacy is crucial for their participation in modern society. This paper examines the challenges and solutions for peer-to-peer digital literacy training among seniors in Germany. The main obstacles identified include technological apprehension, physical and cognitive limitations, and socio-cultural factors. Proposed solutions involve customized training programs with easy-to-understand materials and flexible learning sessions, the use of senior-friendly technology, and leveraging peer support networks where senior volunteers act as digital mentors. Case studies, such as the “Digital-Kompass” project, highlight the effectiveness of these strategies. The paper concludes that a multifaceted approach, backed by continuous support and innovation, is essential to bridge the digital divide and ensure social inclusion for seniors in the digital age.
