Just a brief (1 min, 23 sec) introduction and welcome to the course. This short video will cover the goals of the course and an introduction to the course instructor.
This is a link to the full text of a peer-reviewed manuscript published in 2017 using the Delphi technique. I've also attached it here as a PDF if you cannot access the full text from the journal website.
The short video provides a general overview of the Delphi technique, a brief history of the method, and a few key concepts you should know before deciding if this method is right for your research.
In this video, we cover some basic related to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) process and how it might impact your Delphi panel research. We will go over a few tips to streamline your IRB submission through exemption or partial waiver.
This video describes one of the most important concepts to executing a high quality Delphi study: identifying the right people to serve as experts on your panel!

This video covers the Delphi workflow using a 3-round process. Round 1 gathers information, Round 2 seeks agreement from the panel, and Round 3 is a prioritization round. Additionally, a few statistical terms are covered and we share some basic code for the R statistical software package.
This video is a very quick walk-through of our Google Form template to help you begin constructing your own survey form for a Delphi panel.
A very quick review of the published study included in the course background reading.
This course provides a general overview of a widely used systematic consensus building technique commonly called a "Delphi" panel or process. This method is great to gather, vote on, and rank opinions of experts without holding a physical focus group. We will cover several Delphi basics and use a real world example of a study published by the teacher of this course using this Delphi technique.
