Dear all, if someone can suggest me the most important component for creating curiculums for education for adults. I am working on research the factors that have impact to low level of e-inclusion of citizens older than 50 years. Thanks to all.
I am attaching a very well-written paper on adults' internet usage for learning. It might help you to find proper method.

Dear Ms. Robertina Zdjelar
Just a short e-mail to inform you that I read interested articles about your topic.
I think it might be a good idea to use Blended learning in place of e-learning.
I am sending you two interested article as a PDF file and one book.
Do not hesitate to contact me again if you require any further information on may e-mail [email protected]
I hope I have been of some help.
Best regards,
From my observation, the 50+ers may have good laptops, but only know how to read E-mail! The 50+ers need to have instruction in finding and downloading safe, free software to make their lives better. They need instruction in reading and sending attachments. They need to learn how to do useful searches, and how to create bookmarks. They need to find truthful, useful sources of health information. They need be able to find useful user groups. They need to learn how to be contributors to the Web, and not to be just consumers.
It is all too easy to theorise what the needs of the 50+ers are, and to get hung up on something that is not the real problem. So, the most important component of creating a curriculum is in interviewing successful and unsuccessful citizens, and in bringing the unsuccessful citizens up to the level of those who are successful.
Your research method could involve interviews.
How do such people regard the computer:
A source of sudoko's, solitaire and crosswords each day?
A way to learn?
A source of news, magazines, music, books, videos, and films?
A way to see and speak to their distant frends and relatives?
A way to contact others around the world with similar interests?

Mr Azizi thank You. I would appreciate if You attach the papers. Thanks ones again.
Kind Regards.
