Information and communication technologies are integral part of today's modern instruction. However, we must point out that the potential of computer and internet based support is not yet being fully exercised. Each student is an individual in the process of education, and therefore should be accordingly provided with "tailored" curriculum. E-learning and educational materials need to be adjusted and designed in such a way to ensure that students would be able to work optimally and master the curriculum given with the highest efficiency. In this paper we briefly describe the whole project dealing with the problematic of "the efficient way of learning"...
