Daniel Sundberg
ProfessorDaniel Sundberg, Ph.D., is a Swedish professor of education at Linnaeus University. His expertise lies in curriculum theory and didaktik—the art and science of teaching. As an impassioned educational researcher, teacher, and research leader, he heads the scientific environment known as LINNAEUS-SITE (Studies in Teaching, Curriculum, and Evaluation).
Sundbergs scholarly pursuits transcend geographical boundaries and historical epochs:
- Historical Exploration: delving into educational reforms, unraveling their impact across international and national contexts.
- Comparative Inquiry: juxtapositioning educational systems, discerning patterns and divergences.
- Empirical Investigations: theorizing on school and classroom realities, where theory intersects with practice.
Through extensive research, international and national expert commissions, teaching, and collaborative efforts, several pivotal areas are addressed:
- Governance: navigating the intricate pathways of educational leadership, shaping institutions for sustainable futures.
- Curriculum: scrutinizing the compass guiding knowledge and learning objectives, ensuring alignment with societal needs.
- Teaching practices: exploring pedagogical thinking, fostering in-depth knowledge and engaging learning experiences.
As the chief editor of Pedagogisk Forskning i Sverige (Pedagogical Research in Sweden), Sundberg contributes to vital discussions on research and educational development with a scholarly pen weaving narratives of transformation, echoing across classrooms, corridors, and policy chambers.
