Background and Context: Self-regulated learning (SRL) skills are critical aspect of learning to program and are predictive of academic success. Early college students often struggle to use these skills, but can improve when given targeted instruction. However, it is not yet clear what skills are best to prioritize. Objective: We seek to create a shortlist of SRL skills that help computer science students with an ultimate goal of giving future researchers and educators a set of promising targets for future study. Method: This work details a three-phase Delphi-Process study wherein a panel educators to reach consensus on SRL skills needed for success in CS. Findings: We identified fourteen skills broadly categorized into five areas: Planning, Executing, Monitoring, Responding, and Reflecting. There are several factors to indicate these skills are all highly valuable areas for future work. Implications: We highlight Knowing When to Seek Help especially for future research within the Computing Education Research community.
