This text aims to provide basic information that should support the design, planning and immediate creation of texts of methodological manuals within the scope of methodological cabinets (MC). At the same time, we consider that it is important to maintain sufficient space for the creative and flexible approach of the authors of the methodological manuals, and at the same time to define support points to preserve important common features of the concept of methodological manuals, either in content and structure, or in the form of the methodological materials.
Additional information on this text, including terminology, is provided by another product of the Cabinet's activities, namely the Outline of the Professional Support System Model for Individual Methodological Cabinets. Two basic aspects of interpretation are added to this text.
The first is the conceptual aspect. From its point of view, it explains what concept of the methodological manual we consider useful, what content it should not lack and what it is appropriate to pay special attention to.
The second aspect is directed to the specific procedures of creating the handbook and we understand them as an indicative, not a binding guide. Any models or standards in this direction should then be specified and adopted only on the basis of the experience of the real activities of MC.
