ABSTRACT

This paper seeks to extend discussion on ICT and intergenerational learning by examining the experiences of unrelated older adults and immigrant youths participating in the community-based “ICT Guides” project in Gothenburg, Sweden. I claim that ICT-supported learning between unrelated older adults and immigrant youths eliminates intergenerational and cultural distances and supports functional intergenerational solidarity. It is also a significant platform for empowerment and reciprocal learning. ICT within intergenerational learning facilitates better interaction and understanding between older adults and immigrant youths, despite language difficulties and different cultural backgrounds, changing it from a catalyst and for intergenerational learning to a means of facilitating intercultural support.

摘要

本文旨在通过研究参与瑞典哥德堡社区“ICT 指南”项目的无关老年人和移民青年的经历，扩大对 ICT 和代际学习的讨论。我声称，由 ICT 支持的无关老年人和移民青年之间的学习消除了代际和文化距离，并支持功能性的代际团结。它也是赋权和互惠学习的重要平台。尽管存在语言困难和不同的文化背景，但代际学习中的 ICT 促进了老年人和移民青年之间更好的互动和理解，将其从催化剂和代际学习转变为促进跨文化支持的手段。
