Geragogy

Geragogy is a big word that means teaching older people. When people get older, they might need to learn new things or improve their skills, just like how you learn new things at school every day. But sometimes, older people need to learn things in a different way than younger people because their brains work differently. That's where geragogy comes in.

Think of it like a special kind of school just for older people that helps them learn better. Teachers who are trained in geragogy understand how to make lessons easier to understand and remember for older people. They might use bigger fonts, write things down more clearly, and give more time for students to ask questions or go over things again.

Geragogy is important because everyone deserves to keep learning no matter how old they are. By helping older people learn new things, they can stay engaged and active in their communities and also live healthier and happier lives.
