Tech-and-Life Pal<\/strong> is an ongoing research project led by Dr Yuxi Heluo<\/a><\/strong> at the University of Exeter. The project aims to enhance digital literacy among older adults while helping university students build wellbeing and practical life skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These sessions involve hands-on use of modern technology\u2014such as smartphones, tablets, and computers\u2014alongside guided conversations about essential life skills, including renting accommodation, managing bank accounts, and navigating utility services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
