Summary/Abstract: In considering the nature of student involvement in the study process, we reach for theoretical adult-learning models by Lindeman and Knowles. In this chapter, the youngest generations of extramural students present their attitudes towards studying conditioned by the digital environment they consider natural, and needs and experiences resulting from their professional activities. Older students, of the millennial generation, are more focused on developing their competences, treating studying in terms of personal development.
