Based on five inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to select 22 journals that obtained from the results of database searches, two journals that can be used to answer research questions were found. Data were extracted systematically by segmenting and coding. Followed by determining patterns to find broader category. Results: Based on segmenting and coding process and determining important patterns, two broad categories were found, that are (1) The benefit of study planner in self-directed learning; and (2) Factors that affect study planner and self-directed learning.Conclusion: Study planner can assist students in developing their self-directed learning skills, that will be handy to support their lifelong learning skills.
