Abstract

The purpose of this study is to reveal the results of the analysis of the studies in which Delphi technique is used in open and distance learning. In order to guide the researchers in this field, at first, Delphi technique was presented in detail, then the articles in which Delphi technique was used were analyzed. This analysis was carried out by searching ERIC database. These articles were examined in terms of their scope, number of rounds, size of the expert panel and parameters that were used for data analysis. As a result, limited number of articles was found using Delphi as a data collecting technique. These articles were predominantly related with management and organization, research in open and distance learning, and instructional design. In the articles, it was observed that mostly 3 rounds occurred in parallel with the literature, the size of the expert panel varied from 11 to 106, and means scores were used more often for data analysis contrary to the literature.
