Technology Workshop

We had our first technology workshop of the year this month, and it was a big one: An A-Z of technical terms - what they mean and how to use them! We covered many different terms, from 'address bar' and 'Apple Pay' all the way through to 'Zoom app'. We had useful discussions on the differences between 'the internet', 'a search engine' and 'a web browser' (commonly used interchangeably, but actually performing different functions). We discussed the benefits and practicalities of cloud backup, the importance of using websites that send encrypted data, and different file types, uploads and downloads. There were plenty of questions and anecdotes and useful comments from all who attended, so thank you for making it a very helpful session.
