History
In 2006 Swedish government created a new law. It said that every pupil in K-12 schools, has to have an Individual Development Plan called "IUP" (Individuell Utveckling Plan).
This plan will contain the goals that will be created in connection with parent/teacher/pupil talks that are held two times a year.
The purpose of having an online IUP is that all parties should be able to access the document at any time and be able to follow up on the goals that were created.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“History is more or less bunk. It’s tradition. We don’t want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker’s damn is the history we make today.”
—Henry Ford (1863–1947)
“We have need of history in its entirety, not to fall back into it, but to see if we can escape from it.”
—José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
“In nature, all is useful, all is beautiful. It is therefore beautiful, because it is alive, moving, reproductive; it is therefore useful, because it is symmetrical and fair. Beauty will not come at the call of a legislature, nor will it repeat in England or America its history in Greece. It will come, as always, unannounced, and spring up between the feet of brave and earnest men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
