Between January and March of 2006, KRC conducted Computer Classes for 21 seniors (65 years or older) as an extension of last year’s computer classes. The classes focused on basic everyday usages of the internet—web surfing, emails and discussion forums. Classes became popular among our students and many are eager to get started on the next class. Our instructor, Taiyoung Ko, has returned to South Korea, so the classes are postponed until KRC finds a new instructor.
