This course was a great jumping off point to help me explore how to decolonize education. I liked the detail that the presenters went into (just the right amount, and leaving deeper digging for individuals). Thanks so much for this rich learning opportunity.

Before this course, I thought I had an idea of Indigenous history and current challenges, but I really didn’t know a thing. My eyes have been opened! Thank you so much to the people who put this enlightening course together. Their efforts are much appreciated.

A very generous offering. The minimum background knowledge for anyone settled & settling in "Canada". Greatly appreciated the accessibility and quality of this course, which engages the most pertinent and pressing issues of our past, present, and future times.

I really enjoyed taking this course and highly recommend it.

It is shameful how little I knew about the Indigenous People of Canada, and this course was only the start of my learning journey and how I can be a better ally to Indigenous and marginalised people.

I absolutely love the design and content of this online course. I will definitely recommending it to my friends, family and colleagues. I love how it has a range of interactive components and that it covers historical as well as current day content. Thank you!

I have learned so much by taking this course, living close to first nations my entire life in the Lək̓ʷəŋən unceeded traditional territory my close relationships have all most disappeared, now I have a good place to start the work on renewing those.

Thank you

This course is an introduction to learning more and being open to hear and relish the history of indigenous members of Canada. I appreciated the content as being very diverse, descriptive, interactive in holding my attention and sharing such important truths.

I wasn't very aware of what the settlers have done to the Indigenous People and this course was a great introduction to the horror of how they were treated. Every Canadian should take this course and learn how badly they have been and continue to be treated.

This course material was easy to engage with, insightful and accountable for a history that has been missed by the public education system. I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn about indigenous cultures from professionals in their field. Thank you.

Thank you to everyone involved in making this course. I learned so much and will take so much away from what was shared throughout. Hopefully more people will sign on and take it so that positive changes can be made towards the Indigenous Peoples of Canada.

I had very little knowledge of Canada's Indigenous history or current situation before doing this course.. I learned a ton and have a much broader appreciation and desire to be an ally. The course is a good overview and is easily digestible and informative.

This was a well presented, interesting and very informative course. I learned much that i did not know before and will be sharing information about this course and the programme offered at the University of Alberta with friends and colleagues. Thanks so much!

We learned so much from taking this course, helping overcome the deep ignorance we had regarding Indigenous culture and the history of how Indigenous peoples were treated in Canadian law, society, economics, etc. Thank you for putting this course together.

I worked with the federal government on specific claims for about a decade. What a difference it would have made had I known everything I learned here going into that work. Thank you so much for an excellent course. I enjoyed it thoroughly and learned a lot.

I knew so little about Indigenous Canada prior to taking this course. I appreciate the time, thought and material that was put forward to provide me with what is likely still just a basic understanding, but much better than what I had coming in to the course

I have learned so much from this course. Being an immigrant I must say that I knew very little about Canada's history. I now have knowledge that I feel ready to build on and share with others. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is living in Canada!

I am so grateful that this course exists - I've learned a lot and I feel hopeful that the Indigenous community in Canada will thrive in future and that the horrors of the past may someday be healed, never to be forgotten but never to be repeated. Thank you.

I think this course or parts of it should become part of all school curriculums - the truth needs to be told to our young kids now. I am 67 and am just learning so much thru courses like this and resulting discussions and further exploration . Thank you!!!

The course opened my eyes much wider than I anticipated. I feel more educated and I am very appreciative of the information outlined in this course. Thank you to all the folks at UofA Faculty of Native Studies for taking the time to put all of this together.

Very interesting and informative,just when I thought I knew quite a bit about the Indigenous People of North America, I was floored by what I have never been taught. Great Course and congratulations to all involved in the delivery of the course.Gerry LeBlanc

Thoroughly enjoyed this course. It was easy to do the modules at my own pace. Loved the artwork at the end of each module. Enjoyed the interviews throughout the course. Have a better understanding of some of the Indigenous issues. Thank you to all involved.

This course showed me a side of indigenous history that was never taught in schools in Canada. I plan on furthering my education and learning more about indigenous peoples and the culture that has been taught in this course. Well done to all of the teachers.

Thank you for this introductory course. I especially appreciated beginning to learn about the history, culture, spirituality, education, social movements, thinking about gender, racism, prejudice, art, urbanicity, and I will want to keep learning. Take care.
