An Integrated Strategy to Bridge the Digital Divide Among the Elderly: A Solution Based on Information System

This research aims to systematically analyze the causes of the digital divide among the elderly and propose a strategy that can bridge the digital divide among the elderly at three levels in an integrated way by integrating online and offline resources to improve the Internet access, usability and overall cognitive level of the elderly, based on the design and implementation of an elderly-friendly information system. Trial results show that the system can improve the elderly's ability to use mainstream applications and knowledge level of mobile Internet and help them to gradually cultivate information literacy, so that they could integrate into the information society in a better way.
