When a principal is newly appointed to a school, they would show the performance and ideas. However, lack of experience usually affects their managerial confidence, and even affects their career development. Thus, when they serves as a principal, they may get supports from mentor principals or the website consisting principals’ experience, I believe that principals will get more practical experiences to manage the school smoothly. Our research team bases on experience on practical training and research findings in the Mentor Principal program that has conducted for many years , and in Mentor Principal ‘s Experience Inheritance, we summarized five points of “Understand School”, “Designate Principal”, “Promote Mission”, “Reconcile Conflict”, “Career Development”. First, in order to let foreign users who can browse the information on this network not only in Chinese but also can simultaneously apply for the global information platform synchronized with the English interface query for this website, we will translate and polish the website into English. We expect to have English and Chinese versions of the website, promote the website to enter the information platform in the world, and gather the information of research, seminars, dissertations, and theses about principals at home and abroad. Secondly, we will go on interviewing and conducting focus group discussions with excellent principals from northern, central, southern, and eastern part of Taiwan. We will invite 54 principals to share their experiences heritage. After the focus groups and interview, we will collect, compile and upload data to enrich and update the content of “Mentor Principal‘s Experience Inheritance Information Network”.
