Alongside the various History courses (History I-IV), there are several related modules in subject-specific education. In addition, History III offers a literature pedagogy course. For teaching students, subject-specific education is part of the practical teacher training programme.
What is History Education?
In general terms, the subject matter of history didactics/pedagogy is how we relate to history.
Intercultural Studies offers a wide range of courses focusing on different aspects of intercultural society and the philosophical traditions of the subject.

Datavetenskap vid Karlstads universitet har tillsammans med internationella partners i projektet RITE, Reducing Internet Transport Latency, lanserat en film som på ett enkelt sätt förklarar de faktiska problemen bakom fördröjningar på Internet. Videon visar varför mer bandbredd inte är en ensam lösning till ett snabbare internet.
En generell missuppfattning är ofta att bandbredd är lösningen på alla problem vad gäller hastighet på internet.

The project explores six American minority novels published in the "post-era" of the 1990s USA: Danzy Senna's Caucasia (1998), Gish Jen's Mona in the Promised Land (1996), Sapphire's Push (1996), Bapsi Sidhwa's An American Brat (1995), Linda Hogan's Solar Storms (1994), and Julia Alvarez's How The Gar
Research on organic solar cells has been conducted for a long time. Recent advancements in understanding their molecular structures are now paving the way for the development of highly efficient solar cells.
– By using atomic force microscopy-infrared spectroscopy, AFM-IR, we’ve been able to create clearer images of the morphology or structure of the material, says Ishita Jalan, postdoc in physical chemistry and main author of a recently published scientific article.

MOBILE GEOMEDIA AND AUTOMATION
Mobile geomedia services shot to prominence from around 2007 onwards, with the arrival of smartphones, the integration of GPS into these devices, and the development of maps and navigation apps, as well as location-based mobile social networking apps.
These developments were significant at the time in that they permitted smartphone users to interact with existing local information and create locally relevant information that they could share with others (includin
It is sometimes said that we live in a media society. What does that really mean? What role is played by the media in our lives? Why does media content look the way it does? How do we use the media – in our private lives and at work? And how do the media actually influence our view of the world and of ourselves? These are some of the questions that we try to answer in Media and Communication Studies.
In this workshop we focus on how to explore data in Nvivo in terms of visualizing it through various diagrams and figures as well as in terms of utilizing so called queries. In other words, the workshop aims to show a number of features available in Nvivo that helps to perform certain kinds of analyses. For example, we show how to work with coding queries where we can ‘cut through’ and ‘across’ a coded dataset by combining codes, cases and sources.
