After the over-sixties in Ascoli, Asti and Mantua, this week, Grandparents on the Internet at the Post Office ends in Rome and Naples, too.
Today, in particular, is the last lesson at the Via Lenin Post Office in Rome. The knowledge volunteers who tutored the elder students come from the Leonardo da Vinci School in Rome and are coordinated by Professor Maria Cataldo.
The fifteenth lesson ends the custom-tailored course dedicated to attracting over-sixties to computers and on-line navigation.
The project is organised by Poste Italiane in collaboration with the Fondazione Mondo Digitale at post offices in six pilot cities: Ascoli, Asti, Mantua, Naples, Palermo and Rome.

Grandparents on the Internet at the Post Office was conceived to help elders navigate the web and learn more about new communication technology. Poste Italiane opted for the Grandparents on the Internet Model developed by the Fondazione Mondo Digitale to promote its digital literacy pilot project in post offices around the country [see news "Grandparents at Post Offices"].
