Our Seniors in Tech Program is designed to improve the memory and cognitive function in adults over 50 and slow progression of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Dementia through the use of technology and digital devices according to a study conducted at Gerontology and Geriatric Medicine. Using Sphero Robotics, seniors will help exercise their cognitive function while learning how to operate a robot using hand-eye coordination, explore engineering skills, and code a robot using block code. Interested in learning more or joining a class, contact Dr. Tonjia Grimble at tgrimble@ymcadallas.org.
