Abstract

This is an exploratory Delphi study investigating profound learning, the profound learner, and profound living. The strength of the Delphi technique is leveraging expertise to understand an amorphous problem, such as the concept of profundity explored in this study. The authors could find no evidence of a comprehensive research agenda being conducted to understand profound learning or the profound learner. Though there may be iterations of this topic being investigated, it seems safe to say that profound learning, per se, is understudied. The purpose of this exploratory study was to develop an initial conceptual and theoretical foundation for profundity specifically related to profound learning, the profound learner, and profound living. Seven themes were identified for qualities of profundity, six themes were identified for qualities of profound learning, eight themes were identified for qualities of a profound learner, and six themes were identified for qualities of profound living. An earlier version of this paper was presented at the Adult Education Research Conference, June 2018.
