Abstract. The individual educational trajectory (IET) is a medium-term didactic complex that provides optimal opportunities for developing the creative potential of the learner by taking into account his/her personality. It includes: 1) developing an individual informational environment; 2) tuning the didactical resources; 3) personalization of the interim goals; 4) planning personal learning and research activities; 5) considering the selforganization. In the paper we submit a model of IET called DMT. In contrast to the cognition trajectory developed by Kolyagin and Ganchev the DMT has no linear structure. The IET in our model consists of sections due to the interim goals and each section of it could be perceived as a beam whose spectrum consists of the listed above 5 components. So the architecture of DMT could be associated with the one of the skyscraper Taipei 101 (the abbreviation DMT stands for Didactic Model Taipei). The educational process in any section in the IET could be conducted in different manner that allows different didactic approaches to be applied with respect to the individualities of the learner. The particular didactic approaches we had applied in a case study held in 2011/2012 academic year are strongly influenced by some cybernetic ones in the Consequence Driven Systems (CDS) theory.
