There wasn't always a university in Karlstad. Fact is, we became a university in 1999. But there is a long tradition of higher education in Karlstad. There's been teacher education here since 1843, and it goes on to this day.
The GiftED doctoral programme will, on behalf of the Swedish Research Council, develop knowledge on gifted education with regards to pupils in Swedish pre-school, primary school and secondary school, a field that is relevant to teacher education as well as to research in educational sciences.
To more optimally stimulate pupils who easily achieve goal attainment in school, we need more extensive knowledge about gifted student education.
The situation surrounding the course Intercultural studies: race and whiteness in Sweden, which has attracted a lot of media attention, has led to a report being filed with the Disciplinary Board of Karlstad University.
The report was entered in the registry on Thursday and will be processed promptly.

The Uses of Late Style in Works of Leonard Cohen, Jonny Cash and Dolly Parton
This project was conducted by KuFo-researcher Anna Forssberg.
Based on Adorno’s theories on Late Style (Adorno 1937) this project focuses on Leonard Cohen’s last album, You want it darker (2016), as a Late Style model and compare it with Jonny Cash’s Unearthed ( a box with 5 CDs, 2003), and Dolly Parton’s production after her blue grass peak (from 2003 and onwards).
The first course round has now finished and the students Maria Oliva and Thibault Vainer are very pleased.

On behalf of the Swedish government, the National Library of Sweden (Kungliga biblioteket, KB) has recently developed national guidelines for open science, including a section on Open Educational Resources (OER).
The national guidelines are intended to provide support and guidance to actors in Sweden who have an important role to play in the transition to open science.
Digitalisation of teaching is a very broad field that touches on many subjects and spans across all stages of education. Collectively, we have much expertise in this area at Karlstad University, which gives us a unique scope. The scope of research in this area is closely connected to both teacher training and school practice.
The university library can assist researchers in monitoring developments in their fields. Please contact the library if you would like to receive more information about any other topics.

I would like to start by saying thank you for the warm welcome I have received during my first weeks at Karlstad University. I have already met several of you and I look forward to more meetings in the day-to-day operations.
I enjoy meetings, both planned and spontaneous. It might come as a surprise that someone from management would utter such a thing, given the number of meetings I have attended over the years and the likelihood of a very busy schedule ahead.
