Adults enter computer learning situations with diverse interests and backgrounds. They learn best when they can select from a variety of learning modalities with the goal of completing a desired task. Helping adults learn how to undo computer errors and identify support persons can be just as important as successful completion of a task on the first attempt. By applying these principles of adult education to computer learning, educators can facilitate competence and self-direction in learners.
成年人带着不同的兴趣和背景进入计算机学习环境。当他们能够从多种学习方式中进行选择以完成一项期望的任务时，他们学得最好。帮助成年人学习如何纠正计算机错误并确定支持人员，与首次尝试就成功完成任务同样重要。通过将这些成人教育原则应用于计算机学习，教育工作者可以促进学习者的能力发展和自我导向。
