 # Moodle studyplan plugin
 
+Plugin to organize a curriculum into an easy to read graphical respresentation of courses and student progress therein. 
+
 The studyplan plugin extends Moodle with the ability to show students and teachers an overview of their curriculum and results therein.
 By showing students an easy to read graphical overview of their progress over multiple courses, students are more in control of their own
 learning process than by just listing results alone
