The Wood County Committee on Aging, Inc. (WCCOA) will begin holding tablet computer classes at the
Bowling Green location at 305 N. Main St. in February, to better connect those in the area with the
latest technology.
All ages are welcome to explore the world of tablets, including the Apple iPad and Amazon Kindle. Tablet
computers may seem confusing or difficult to use, but the Wood County Committee on Aging is here to help
reduce the anxiety that many feel when using technology. Whether class members already have a tablet or
want to get one, there is always something to learn about these smart devices. Seniors can either bring
their own device or use one belonging to the senior center.
Tablet computers are growing in popularity and are used for many things. From playing games to taking
photos to reading books to browsing the web and much more, tablet computers are more popular than ever.

The classes will run for one hour a week for five weeks. Instructors are knowledgeable students from the
School of Media and Communication at Bowling Green State University.
Classes will be videotaped for quality improvement and training purposes.
Space is limited, although the February meeting dates have not yet been finalized. Seniors and others can
register by contacting the Programming Department at the senior center at (419) 353-5661, (800) 367-2882
or [email protected].
