Event Description

Does technology take us away from what matters most, or could it provide new ways of enriching our lives? In this workshop, Clinical Psychology students at the University of Waterloo will review how technology relates to well-being across the lifespan. Referencing research in the field, we will outline the benefits and risks associated with the use of technology for promoting social connection, pursuing hobbies, and aiding personal development.

Adults ages 50+ are invited for a free afternoon of learning and fitness.
