Abstract

In a dynamic global context, self-directed learning emerges as an essential competency, requiring lifelong skills such as self-management, autonomy, responsibility, and self-discipline. This chapter discusses the interaction between self-directed learning and instructional design, emphasizing the pivotal role of the latter in effectively facilitating the self-directed process. The discussion is grounded in a comprehensive literature review, providing a theoretical overview based on contributions from renowned authors in the field. We address examples of educational institutions, highlighting successful practices of self-directed learning supported by instructional design, with a focus on the experience of the Open University of Brazil (UAB). Additionally, this chapter reflects on the methods employed by these institutions to optimize self-directed learning, showcasing the effective integration of instructional design into the curriculum structure. It is concluded that instructional design serves as a significant strategic partner in promoting self-directed learning, outlining guidelines for the selection of suitable educational resources and fostering student autonomy and self-management. Thus, this chapter contributes to a broad understanding of the synergy between self-directed learning and instructional design, offering valuable insights for professionals, researchers, and educators committed to promoting educational excellence at advanced levels of instruction.
