Cover Story: Information and communication technology (ICT), such as smartphones, has been attracting attention as a means of preventing isolation among the elderly. However, while previous studies have emphasized the benefits of individualized ICT education for the elderly, they have not seriously considered the issues of cost or time-effectiveness. In this review, we propose research that shows that, when experienced instructors provide individual instruction to elderly people, and the elderly people who have been taught teach other elderly people after the instruction, a positive spiral effect can be achieved that increases the self-efficacy and social capital of the elderly and maximizes the improvement in smartphone skills in general.
