Is technology an integrating or dividing force? This was a hot topic at Generations United’s 2011 International Conference that led Penn State University and Generations United to collaborate on this guidebook. We wanted to confront the challenging question raised at that time: “How can we use new media as a tool to enable connections across age groups, increase collaboration across geographic distances, and improve communication to diminish stereotyping?”
A terrific international team took on this challenge and surveyed programs around the world. Their findings and recommendations, as well as guidance for creating quality technology-based intergenerational programs, can be found in this publication.
