SRSSDL was used to collect data which had been tested with the construct validity and reli-ability (cronbach’s alpha = 0936). And the data were analyzed by the General Linear Model Univariate Analysis of Variance test through a computer program SPSS release 16. The result  showed  there were differences in self-directed learning for students who are subjected to a web-based inquiry method and the conventional method (F = 5.518; r = 0.021) with mean X1 = 137.395 > mean X2 = 129.778).
