Electronic mail and other telecommunications processes may prove to be valuable tools for the active involvement of educators in legislative and policy development. Involving educators in regulations development could reduce implementation problems significantly. Using electronic media to disseminate policy information to educational agencies and organizations of all types and sizes can enhance the solicitation of individual or group input for policy development at local, regional, state, and national levels. Time delays are limited and costs are held down. SpecialNet is a good example of an electronic mail system that is being used effectively; special education programs use SpecialNet extensively for interprogram communications. The system is also available to other disciplines in education. (PGD)
