Abstract: This paper reports and reflects on the use of information technology to support a systemic reform effort in rural, geographically distributed schools. An evaluation conducted after a year and a half of effort indicated limited use of the technology outside of face-to-face events. We reassess the potential roles of technology in systemic reform in terms of the communities and practices to be supported and the tension between supporting and changing practice.
