Swedish society has changed since the 20th century and a classroom today looks very different. The multi - cultural society has grown and in step with the growth, one can today shed light on various obstacles and problems in the teaching of the Swedish subject of history. To get an overview of how the research is done, we have chosen to look at teaching strategies, history didactics and multiculturalism in the classroom. Among other things, we will delve into narrative orientation, social science orientation and more perspective orientation in history teaching. The databases we have chosen to use are ERIC - EBSCO, ERC Education Research Complete and SwePub. We justify our search for research through databases such as ERIC and ERC because we wanted to include an international aspect in the knowledge overview in order to be able to follow history teaching in other countries besides Sweden. Something that is common to all research is the lack of governing documents that are not adapted to the multicultural society. One consequence of this is that the countries’ historical canons and syllabi are not updated either. The material is limited to the local area and makes it difficult to bring new perspectives into the teaching, as well in Sweden as internationally. Our overview of research leads us to the conclusion that the students are in need of teaching that contributes to a broader historical awareness, so that the student in question can analyze and reflect from several different perspectives.
