Question

IT education

Any modern person who has been using a computer regularly and for a long time (not to mention IT people) usually understands quite well the practical and physical meaning of such things as a file, archive, encoding, program file, browser, web page, etc. and refers these things to the area of ​​obvious basic concepts of the familiar surrounding world. But from time to time there are people aged and sometimes even young people who do not understand any of this, who can somehow work with a computer only at a primitive level "press the button - you will get the result", for whom the computer is a "black box" with logically flat interaction , without any understanding of the internal logic, as a result of which the possibility of independent processing of the slightest deviations in working scenarios is completely absent, Yes, and talking to them and explaining something to them (including when they themselves ask) is hard. Isn't there some good ready-made solution to fix this situation? Good, professionally made and tested video tutorials, training materials, etc.? Interested in both Russian and English versions.
PS: By the way, an interesting fact is that working with such people, teaching them to solve some practical problems was much easier when there was only a command line and there was no GUI - there were much fewer metaphors and virtual logical essentials for understanding and the instructions could usually be quite concise and it is determined to write down in the form of several lines in a notebook.

Answer 1

After I saw a 97-year-old man, I can’t dare to call my grandfather, who himself mastered the computer and learned how to work on it basicly, including reinstalling the system. To all such questions as how to teach an elderly person, I answer that if he wants to learn himself, and if you are too lazy to tear your ass off the sofa with a TV and leave the comfort zone, then any courses and books are powerless, it will refer to memory and poor vision, basic master a computer at the level of the browser and directories can be anyone who is not at the mushroom level for medical reasons. Another thing is that many people never want to turn on the brain and want everything to be done for them, for this they skillfully come up with excuses, it does not depend on age.
