This program will help students learn to do exactly what its title says: to learn to better understand people by sharing their experiences. Students will learn what it might be like for some people who, because of growing older, are no longer able to see, hear or get around as well as when they were young. Topics covered include: attitudes about aging and older people, myths and stereotypes about older people, and so much more!
