Online Learning Can Support Social Engagement
- Many older adults go back to school, while others turn to online courses.
- Online courses can offer flexible, interactive and collaborative learning opportunities, that allow you to take courses from instructors all over the world.
- Engaging with others in online courses appears to foster a sense of belonging to a group (albeit virtual), improve self-esteem, and help address isolation among older adults.
