His scholarly work examines school inspection mechanisms (1861-1930), the material history of educational tools like wallcharts, and the feminization of teaching professions during Sweden's elementary school expansion. Current projects analyze the university as a referential body (1968-2022), building on his Swedish Research Council-funded study about school inspections (2020-2023). He teaches courses spanning educational history, leadership, conflict management, and project organization at basic levels, with advanced responsibility for communicative leadership instruction.
Through publications in journals like Paedagogica Historica and History of Education, Evertsson's scholarship reveals patterns in educational reform, visual pedagogy evolution, and institutional power dynamics between church and state. His work combines archival analysis of inspection reports with material culture studies of classroom artifacts to trace how physical and bureaucratic changes shaped teacher professionalization and curriculum implementation.
