Autodidacticism (also autodidactism) is self-education or self-directed learning. An autodidact is a mostly self-taught person, as opposed to learning in a school setting or from a full-time tutor or mentor. Autodidacts might spend their time reading either in solitude or in public spaces such as at libraries or via educative websites. They may or may not have designed a plan for their course of study. They may or may not engage a network of experts for guidance. The term "self-taught" is something of a journalistic trope these days, and is often used to signify "non-traditionally educated", which is entirely different, as the flow of information and the focus of study is usually governed by the teacher or educational source and not the student. Inquiry into autodidacticism has implications for learning theory, educational research, educational philosophy, and educational psychology.

i dunno how to explain it educationally but i have a case here.. i was taught do re mi fa so la si do when i was a child.. And i listened to a lot of music.. i tried to press the tuts of a piano and tried to play the music.. I look at how others play the piano and i some-what copy-cat it.. And now i can play every song i want just by listening to mp3's and experiment with the piano So i guess it's how you learn something on your own without mentors or teachers.. it's more fun that way i guess...
