The “KMUTT Smart Senior” program aims to enhance digital literacy among the elderly, made possible through the collaboration of multiple organizations, including the Thung Khru District Office, KMUTT Ratchaburi and Bang Khun Thian campuses, the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB), Darunsikkhalai School for Innovative Learning, and various KMUTT departments. Training topics included foundational knowledge in artificial intelligence (AI), mobile photography and video editing techniques, and the use of everyday technologies—such as energy-saving practices and emergency preparedness. The program was designed to build confidence, bridge the digital divide, and empower seniors to participate creatively in society while improving access to communication, health information, and online services.
KMUTT’s “Smart Senior” program promotes lifelong learning and sustainable digital inclusion, enabling elderly participants to apply their skills in daily life and continue contributing to society.
