Research groups

Stockholm History Education Research Group – SHER

The History Education Research Group brings together research on people’s encounters with history in educational and other contexts. The group has a broad profile, examining how historical knowledge is selected, represented, interpreted, and used, often with a particular focus on history in school.

Social Studies Education

The aim of the research group is to encourage publications and develop project ideas for social studies education research based at the Department of Teaching and Learning. In this effort, we cooperate with Swedish and international researchers doing similar work.

Teaching developing research in subject matter didaktik

The research group shares a strong interest in teaching development research. The research often takes its starting point in a challenge that has been identified in teaching, or in research, and it is often carried out in collaboration between researchers and teachers.

About me

In the autumn of 2019, I defended my dissertation "Learning history through historical source materials" which focuses on questions about how students learn to interpret historical sources and how history teaching can enable the learning of source interpretation. The empirical data was collected through two educational development studies at upper secondary school and in the intermediate stage. In addition to ongoing research at HSD, I teach at Globala Gymnasiet where I am a high school lecturer. My subjects are history, social studies, philosophy and English. My research area is mainly history didactics and the research interest revolves around students' work with historical sources, source interpretation and source criticism, but in recent years I have also started working with social studies didactics. I am currently involved in two major research projects. One project with funding from the School Research Institute is investigating opportunities to work with enquiry-based and exploratory teaching in subject subjects. Among other things, the project is carried out through a professional development university course called "Doing enquiry", where about thirty teachers are currently enrolled. The teachers develop and test their own enquiries through the research project. Another research project is being carried out with the support from the Swedish Research Council and the project is investigating the possibilities of teaching about trust issues in social studies at upper secondary school. The teaching in this project is also based on an enquiry-based and exploratory teaching design.
