I’m collecting brief survey data for my final paper on reverse mentoring to boost digital literacy among seniors. Answer the Likert scale and follow-up questions if applicable.
hey, this survey is pretty intresting. reverse mentoring could help seniors become more comfrtable with tech. im happy to contribute and share my views on digital learning. keep pushin this research!
I have observed that reverse mentoring can be very effective when mentors are genuinely committed to tailoring their approach to seniors’ specific needs. In my experience facilitating digital literacy sessions, even a slight change in how instructions were given made a noticeable difference in the participants’ confidence. The mutual benefit lies not only in skill development for seniors but also in creating an environment where both parties learn from each other. A structured yet flexible framework, along with clear communication, often makes the difference in ensuring the mentoring relationship is successful.
Hey ExploringForest! I’ve been thinking about reverse mentoring too, and I’m really intrigued by how it can empower seniors to get more comfortable with digital tools. I personally feel that when older folks receive one-on-one guidance from someone who’s grown up with tech, it not only builds skills but also boosts confidence. I’d lean towards a strong agreement on the potential for reverse mentoring to bridge the digital divide. What do you think are the key elements that make a mentoring relationship tick in this context? Also, has your research looked into the challenges that might arise during this exchange? Would love to hear more about your approach and any insights you might have so far! 
hey, im thinking reverse mentoring bridges tech gaps well. seniors get real hands-on tips, and mentors learn to simplify things. sure, there may be some hiccups with group dynamics but its a cool way to boost confidence overall. curious on coping with those tricky moments
