Abstract	The learning needs for adults that result from the constant increase in technology are rooted in the adult learning concepts of (a) andragogy, (b) self-directed learning, (c) learning-how-to-learn, (d) real-life learning, and (e) learning strategies. This study described the learning strategies that adults use in learning to engage in an online auction process. The findings indicated that (a) the learning process of the participants supported adult learning principles, (b) there are additional descriptors for the learning strategy preference groups, (c) learners can achieve similar learning tasks by using different learning strategies, and (d) traditional literacy and computer literacy skills are enhanced by Internet use. (As Provided).
