What is a word that means "unwilling to learn"?

Question

I train people in software and sometimes the students are resistant or unwilling to learn. I would like to know if there is a word to describe these people.

"Dense" is the old high school term for this. – Hot Licks Jun 08 '18 at 23:15 — Hot Licks, Jun 08 '18 at 23:15

My personal favourite would be willfully ignorant - not only do they not know, they also refuse to learn!

Recalcitrant is a good one I think.
