Abstract

This presentation discusses the use of the Delphi technique as an e-research model and provides a framework for conducting a Delphi study over the Internet. Initially developed by the RAND Corporation in the early 1950s, the Delphi has now been implemented across discipline areas as a means of obtaining opinions from persons without physically bringing them together. The presentation will describe the process in designing and conducting a Delphi study and provide a step-by-step procedure for the three stages of the Delphi. A discussion of the data collection and analysis process will be presented, and the participants will have the opportunity to explore possible applications of the Delphi for research.
