This chapter presents the findings of a recent study conducted on the adult learners of the University of Eswatini (UNESWA) that explored how Moodle enhanced self-directed learning among the adult learners and how these adult learners mastered the content using the Moodle platform. It was found that while some learners excelled in using the platform, others lacked the technological skills to manoeuvre the platform. Also, participants lamented that the lecturers did not post material Moodle. Notably, Moodle enabled independent learning for those learners who were employed. The following conclusions were made: 1) lecturers need to post more material on Moodle, 2) refresher videos to keep learners abreast with Moodle should be made, and 3) periodic institutional assessment on the uptake of Moodle should be done.
