NEW | Climate Change and the Global Order Get Smart with Your Android Smartphone
Climate change has become one of the defining issues of our
time. As much of the world bands together to come up with a
plan, the U.S. remains the notable holdout. What is the rest of
the world doing to combat climate change? What impact will
the effects of climate change have on global geopolitics?
These questions and much more will be discussed. Class
held at Margaret Place Senior Apartments in Coon Rapids.
Class fee: $10. Phones are no longer just phones. In fact, making a phone call
is now only the sixth most common use for a mobile phone.
Mobile devices have become our schedule keepers, navigation
devices, cameras, entertainment centers, alarm clocks and
money managers. But are you truly making the most of this
technology? This hands-on class will show you functions
you can use on a daily basis and offer you the tools to learn
more advanced tricks at your own pace. March 3 class held at
Margaret Place Senior Apartments in Coon Rapids. Bring your
charged Android smartphone. Class fee: $25 one; $39 two.
