Findings: The correlation results showed ICTL and SDL have positively correlated with each other (P<0.01). Results of regression showed, describing, managing and communicating as a component of ICTL have multiple correlations with self-directed learning and predicted 23% of their changes. Structural equation modeling showed that ICT literacy with path(γ=0.50), has been effect on self-directed learning.
