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:
“The history of medicine is the history of the unusual.”
—Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Prof. Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll)
“Boys forget what their country means by just reading “the land of the free” in history books. Then they get to be men, they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books.”
—Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
“In history the great moment is, when the savage is just ceasing to be a savage, with all his hairy Pelasgic strength directed on his opening sense of beauty;—and you have Pericles and Phidias,—and not yet passed over into the Corinthian civility. Everything good in nature and in the world is in that moment of transition, when the swarthy juices still flow plentifully from nature, but their astrigency or acridity is got out by ethics and humanity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
