Self-directed learning refers to a learning process that learners themselves are responsible for, from identifying
their learning needs, through designing and implementing learning interventions to evaluating their effectiveness.
Thus, self-directed learning is mainly related to adult learners as the ability to learn self-directedly requires self-
acceptance, openness to experience, planfulness, internalised education, flexibility, and autonomy. Additionally,
self-directed learning involves intrinsic motivation to engage cognitively, emotionally, and behaviourally in learning
activities. Learners’ intrinsic motivation is mainly discussed from the perspective of the satisfaction of learners’
basic psychological needs (i.e., autonomy, competence, and relatedness). As learning occurs in social contexts
(i.e., workplace), it requires robust supportive conditions. Throughout the course, students will discuss seminal
papers and the issues related to the self-directed learning of adult learners.

Aim of subject:

Students will be introduced to the basic tenets of self-directed learning. The aim is to provide students with self-directed theoretical models, principles, research findings, and practical applications to workplace settings.

Gained knowledge:

Students can define self-directed learning and its models. They understand the role of motivation and social context in self-directed learning. They can distinguish different dimensions of learning engagement and their interdependence in self-directed learning.

Gained skills:

Students can apply their knowledge in designing an intervention based on research evidence and discuss its contribution to theory and practice. They can evaluate self-directed learning in organisations from the perspectives of learners’ intrinsic motivation, learning engagement, and social context.
