Learning for adults most times have different motivational reasons, which reflect in their learning style and the research on the relationship between
As with the development of many new ideas, self-directed learning has created some confusion in that many related concepts are often used either interchangeable or in similar ways. Examples include self-education (Hosmer (1847), Dickinson & Clark, 1975, Smith 1976, Snedden 1930); self-directed learning; self-planned learning (Tough 1966); self-instruction (Johnstone &Rivera 1965, Smith 1976); individual learning (Smith 1976); autonomous learning (Houle 1962, Miller 1964, Moore 1980, Smith 1976);
