Program Description

Event Details

Visit sites around the world from the comfort of your home, get a bird’s-eye-view of your childhood neighborhood, or simply get directions to your friend’s house! Google Maps is a mapping application that offers satellite imagery, street maps, and street-view perspectives. It also has a route planner for your preferred transportation method, be it foot, car, bicycle or public transportation. During this lecture, you’ll get an introduction to the platform and a demonstration of how to use it.

Senior Planet aims to enable older adults to come together and find ways to learn, work, create, exercise, and thrive in today’s digital age. Please join us for our 60 minute lecture introducing a popular tech topic and theme in a clear and concise manner. Individual lectures aim to explain the general purpose of a device or concept, its usefulness and important tips and tricks. Led by Cherry Lane’s Community Librarian and hosted at the Meridian Senior Center in Kleiner Park, this Senior Planet series is the perfect beginning step for our patrons over 55.
