This article is based on the first wave of an ongoing worldwide Delphi study which is currently analysing the immediate and expected effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on adult education and adult learning. While the methodology of Delphi studies varies a lot, in a nutshell, the core idea of a Delphi study is that it explores the future of a particular field in a collaborative way. The authors contacted more than 50 international experts in the field of adult education for a qualitative online survey between April and May 2020, asking them to provide information, observations, expectations and advice. While the findings show many cross-national similarities, there are also many differences. Clearly, adult educators are still trying to understand the implications of the crisis, which they perceive as unprecedented.
本文基于一项正在进行的全球德尔菲研究的第一阶段，该研究目前正在分析新冠疫情对成人教育和成人学习的直接和预期影响。虽然德尔菲研究的方法差异很大，但简而言之，德尔菲研究的核心思想是以合作的方式探索特定领域的未来。作者在2020年4月至5月期间联系了50多位成人教育领域的国际专家，进行了一次定性在线调查，要求他们提供信息、观察结果、期望和建议。虽然研究结果显示出许多跨国相似之处，但也存在许多差异。显然，成人教育工作者仍在努力理解这场危机的影响，他们认为这场危机是前所未有的。
