At first guidelines for teachers are presented that can support them in planning and implementing courses.

Pilot testing - Implementation phase
Germany
Between 11.10.22 and 14.10.22 Leibniz University Hannover implemented a course
„Social Networks and Digital Citizenship for Seniors“ in cooperation with the community college VHS Hannover.
The programme consisted of a theoretical introduction of the topic Digital Citizenship, followed by a practical part in which the participants were familiarized with social networks and got used to having political discussions online.
The course worked with Facebook as an example for social networks. Therefore also parts of module 3 were used to show the participants how to create an account on Facebook.
The course was divided into two parts because the majority of participants didn’t want to attend physically because of Covid-19. Therefore we had 2 days of the course for the participants in the facilities of the VHS Hannover and 2 days of the course as an online course.
In general, the course with physical attendance worked better, because the participants had almost no previous knowledge about the topics of the course.


Cyprus
The pilot testing event in Cyprus was organized face-to-face by Emphasys Centre from October until December 2021 (12th of October, 12th & 19th & 26th of November, 3rd & 10th & 17th of December), in Emphasys premises (Nicosia, Cyprus). The modules presented in the pilot testing were:

Poland
In Poland, we have carried out a pilot testing phase in 3 towns: Kozłów, Witkowice, and Zawoja. We met with around 35 seniors. Two groups decided to develop their skills on mobile phones and one group was working on laptops. We held workshops based on module 6 for 3 groups and module 3 for two of them.




Portugal
Pilot Testing:
The pilot test was implemented at two Senior Universities, by two Teachers and with two different groups of seniors.
Thus, throughout the report we will have the reports and results obtained from 2 classes:
1 – University of the Third Age of Lumiar, by Andreia Veloso (C1)
2 – Senior University of Rio de Mouro, by Teacher Marisa (C2)
Concerning C1, the pilot was conducted in UTIL (Universidade da Teceira Idade do Lumiar) on the 17th and 24th of November 2021, between 15h30 and 17h00, with 9 seniors. Module 1 was developed in the classroom and the remaining modules were explored autonomously by each student, starting at home, and the proposal was that each person should do the modules they wanted, in the order they preferred and according to their interests.
The pilot test was also put into practice at the Senior University of Rio de Mouro – C2 -, between November and February, on Tuesdays, between 2:30pm and 4:30pm. Fourteen people participated, 12 women and 2 men, learning Modules 1 and 6.
