Abstract
An adaptive and flexible methodology that encompasses a blend of effective practices is necessary in self-directed learning. The characteristics of self-directed learners are identified, and innovative methods to promote learning for this category of highly-motivated adult learners are presented, even for those with barriers to overcome. Both theoretical views and practical applications are discussed.
