Abstract
Based on the background of the social trends to support adults' learning at higher education institutions, this study clarified the motivations of adults who enrolled in an online university, continuous factors and hindrances to their studies, and transformations gained through learning. The results of interview surveys and an analysis with the modified grounded theory approach showed that the adult online learners had both internal and external motivations. In addition, learning at the university led to various transformations in their studies, acquaintances, and lives. The findings suggested that for adult learners in e-learning courses, relationships with communities of faculties, mentors, and other students are very important.
