Orientation in Space and Time
Issues
Elderly fail to communicate with the others due to lack of knowledge on how to operate current platforms.
Solutions
Building a completely new communication platform might prove to be too tedious or expensive. This still stands however. According to online articles, the prices to build such a large website can range up to $50,000. Instead, I believe I can build a much smaller scale social media. This cheaper option might not be as effective, but will still function on a local community. It will also include signing up younger audiences as well.
Second is to build a website to inform the elderly on how to use communication platforms. Having a website with simple guides could enhance their performance. The only issue being that they might have trouble finding the website.

A communication platform for the elderly would be transcending geographical boundaries, and help exchange information to others. This process of exchanging will build interactions.
