本研究目的主要為瞭解高齡者國外旅遊的動機、影響因素、自我導向學習活動中遇到之困難與挑戰以及探究高齡者國外旅遊自我導向的學習歷程,最後提供高齡者教育相關機構以供參考。 研究方法利用半結構式訪談法訪問8位高齡者。依據研究發現,研究結果如下: (一) 高齡者國外旅遊動機 包括可促進健康、提昇生活品質、學習異國風俗文化、與朋友家人同遊、享受異國美食與體驗異國風土人情。 (二)高齡者國外旅遊影響因素 包括身心健康、經濟條件許可、政府旅遊相關措施完備、休閒旅遊安全等都會影響高齡者國外旅遊因素。 (三) 高齡者國外旅遊自我導向學習之經歷所遇到困難與挑戰 包括語文會話、治安(遺失行李)、飲食不習慣、上廁所、給小費等等困難與挑戰。 (四) 高齡者國外旅遊所遇到困難解決方法 高齡者國外旅遊初期皆以配合旅行社套裝旅遊來解決所遇到困難方法為主,其透過跟團領隊與親友協助解決。後期以半自助旅行為輔,找尋旅遊網路資訊、圖書館報章雜誌、家人朋友以及旅行同業等以解決所遇到之困難。 (五) 高齡者國外旅遊自我導向學習之歷程 高齡者自我導向學習的一開始,都是從旅行同業及社群好友來從事自我導向國外旅遊學習。國外旅遊了解學習的過程以後,有第二次、第三次旅遊便知道如何從事自我導向學習與自行找資料,利用網路或手機、平板電腦以解決國外旅遊自我導向學習之問題。出國次數愈多、年齡愈年輕者,自我導向學習的可能性就愈高。 最後根據研究結果,針對未來研究方法,以及執行樂齡學習活動提供相關建議。
The main purpose of this study to understand the motivations seniors travel abroad, influencing factors, self-directed learning activities difficulties and challenges encountered in the silver-haired foreign travel and explore self-directed learning process, and finally provide elderly seniors education-related institutions for reference. Access Methods eight elderly seniors use of semi-structured interviews.

Abroad more times, the more younger age, the likelihood of the higher self-directed learning. Finally, according to research findings, provide recommendations for future research methods, as well as seniors learning activities executed.
