No, I don't think the instructor is necessarily responsible for an adult learner's motivation. One of Knowles' five assumptions of adult learners is that one's self-concept moves from dependency to self-direction. In his book, Andragogy In Action (1984), Knowles acknowledged that adults are influenced to some extent by external motivators such as a pay raise or job promotion, but believed that internal motivators such as self-actualization are more influential (Blondy, 2007).
Therefore, facilitators can help foster a learner's self-direction, for example by defining concrete learning outcomes - but the initial motivation to learn should come from within.
