Abstract | The development and implementation of a 6-month pilot electronic problem-solving network for principals is described. Twenty-four school leaders in Ontario and the Northwest Territories made up the membership of the network. Included in this report is information on user recruitment, operating procedures, technical arrangements, user perceptions of network utility, implementation obstacles, and development of a case problem file. Project results indicate that the role of the network broker is crucial for network operation and that FAX technology is the medium of choice for a network involving school principals. More significantly, it was determined that most principals' work patterns are generally incompatible with the requirements of membership in an electronic network. Recommendations are made for continuation of the network as an integrated part of a district staff development program. Appendices contain sample cases and correspondence.
