Abstract

Starting from the existence of a generational digital divide as we show in the introduction, the training of elderly in the resources offered by the Information Society becomes essential to achieve its e-inclusion. We perform a theoretical approach to the concept of digital literacy showing what their common parameters. From these parameters of use and exploitation of ICT, a tour is made by various studies on the psycho-social characteristics of the elderly in ICT learning. The findings suggest some adaptations in pedagogical ICT training of seniors through a series of recommendations to value the peculiarities of this social group in their learning processes.
