About Us

     Delphi M.E. helps administrators, educators, and instructional designers improve student success and exceed stakeholder expectations by reducing student withdrawals, failures, and dropouts (WFDs); and improving student performance. Our flagship tool, Delphinium, helps students WANT to engage by supporting key factors of motivation: autonomy; meaning through social interaction and relevance; feelings of success through achievement and recognition; urgency; and fun! As a result, Delphinium promotes more student success than any other educational technology tool on the market.

​   Delphinium is a results-driven and research-based toolset that is powerful, flexible, and feature rich. It is based on proven research in learning, motivation, information design, and gamification. Research shows that Delphinium reduces WFDs and improves academic excellence by adding motivating game elements and information design to existing Canvas courses. It is convenient and easy to use. Students and teachers rave about the experience!

​   Delphinium is built on the educational gamification research and applied technologies of Dr. Jared Chapman PhD, MBA, M.Ed. Dr. Chapman writes extensively on gamification and is a popular lecturer and keynote presenter on the use of gamification in the improvement of learner performance.
