Abstract
La despoblación del medio rural del interior de España representa un serio problema a la hora de ofrecer atención personalizada a las personas mayores, que ahora representan un elevado porcentaje de su población. Se considera que el avance en la investigación y desarrollo de nuevas funciones de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) puede ayudar en la labor que tradicionalmente han realizado familiares o vecinos. Sin embargo, es necesario conocer cómo estas funcionalidades son valoradas por las personas mayores y para ello se les ha convocado a través de diversos talleres, donde se les han mostrado mediante dinámicas de grupo y se les ha pedido que las evaluaran. Los resultados han sido muy positivos, pues tras su conocimiento y prueba los mayores se han manifestado muy receptivos a su uso, apreciando cómo podían contribuir a mejorar su calidad de vida.
