Purpose

This program was designed as a final assignment for Core Course 4 on Instrumentation for Instruction and Training. This course is a part of the Masters Programme in Educational and Training Systems Design at the Faculty of Educational Science and Technology of the University of Twente in Enschede, The Netherlands.

The purpose of the program about Polish Kings is to serve as a set of lessons about rulers in Poland for students in the 2nd class of the Polish secondary schools. Since each student needs brushing-up of different parts of the history, this program allows an individual approach to the subject, based on individual needs and interests. In this program you will find questions about each of the kings which students first should try to answer for themselves. Thus estimating their weaknesses they should choose two or three kings to write an essay about. These essays should be incorporated into this document so that students can read eachothers work in a following lesson.
