I'm extremely grateful that ths course exists. After such a positive learning expereince that has transcended into a profound personal journey, I pledge that this will only be the beginning of my personal education about Indigenous Canada.

Amazing course. This is what we should be teaching our children in school. Instructors were captivating, content was engaging and lots of learning to share with your friends and family. I am looking forward to learning more on my own time.

Although I had some familiarity of UNDRIP and the Truth and Reconciliation work, the overview of First Nations history and cultural identity development was very necessary to fill in gaps in my understanding of the country I was raised in.

This course is the start to my continuous learning journey about Indigenous Canada. I loved how the course material was presented and how each unit ended with the art work related to the content. Thank you for opening my eyes and my mind.

There are not enough stars in the sky for this course. Giving it only five feels shameful some how.

This may well be the most powerful, important, and necessary academic experience I've had. I am deeply grateful to have stumbled across it.

Enjoyed learning more about a culture that many know little about. Really opened my eyes to the mistreated of indigenous people, and how I can do better to understand and support these communities by allowing to help their voices be heard.

I now see how woefully ignorant I was as a young girl growing up as the granddaughter of agricultural settlers on Treaty 7 territory. I hope to continue to learn about, support, and honour the traditional protectors of this amazing land.

It's a great beginning course to learn about the history of Canada that was not taught in school. I got a brief glimpse about everything that happened in between first contact and current events. Some of our history is quite embarrassing.

This course offers a thorough history of Indigenous Peoples in Canada to date. I enjoyed the multiple formats of content (videos, artwork, readings, etc.) as well as the ease of understanding. Thank you for making this course available!

Thank you for offering this course . It was extremely enlightening and will spur me on to investigate further in order to better understand First Nation , Metis and Inuit peoples and their initial and continuing contributions to Canada .

"Indigenous Canada" should be a required course in either high school or first year university in Canada. This course presents a uniquely indigenous perspective of the colonization of Canada and the damage done to its native inhabitants.

Thoroughly enjoyed this very informative and enlightening course. The course provides a very detailed outline of the history of indigenous peoples in Canada, and provides important insight into the current status in today's world. Thanks!

Thank you dear professors and instructors for reducing my ignorance. I am so happy to have had an opportunity to learn a little about the Indigenous peoples of Canada and I hope that you would offer more online courses in the near future.

This course was fantastic and made me so much more aware of the history, beauty, historical and contemporary issues, and so much more of the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. I highly recommend this course to all people, especially Canadians!

This course is exactly the overview I needed to learn about indigenous history and current life. I recommend this course highly to all Canadians - it certainly rounded out my fractured knowledge and sharpened my awareness. Many thanks!

I learned so much. The content was both thoughtful and thought provoking. I really liked the use of many visual pieces, story telling, and music throughout. The various speakers were really effective at bringing in different perspectives.

I very much enjoyed the course. I realize I knew very little about our Indigenous community. I have always enjoyed the Indigenous art work. I hope to learn more about the community in the future.

Thank you for making this course available!

THERE IS SO MUCH HISTORY THAT I AS A SETTLER CANADIAN DID NOT KNOW. iT ANGERS ME THIS IS NOT ADRESSED IN SCHOOL. iT HAS HELPED ME TO UNDERSTAND THE COLINIZERS RESPONSIBILITY TO UPHOLD PROMISES OF THE PAST. I WILL BE LESS COMPLACENT AND MO

Every Canadian needs to take this course. You don’t know what you don’t know. Here is your chance to learn and better understand that our Nation’s pathway forward can include all the cultural riches of beautiful Indigenous ways of being.

This course is an incredible primer and should be required reading for all secondary students in Canada. I have learned so much and especially that there is so much more to learn about indigenous peoples. Thank you to all those involved!

This was a compelling course filled with such important material. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to enrol and begin my process of learning. Deep gratitude to U of A, Instructors, TAs, and Coursera for making this possible.

Excellent and informative Course. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a better understanding of indigenous issues and some root causes to disputes that are on-going. Thank you UofA and coursera for making this information accessible.

Very informative! I appreciated hearing about Indigenous culture, stories, issues, art etc. from a purely Indigenous perspective. It helped me to understand and acknowledge even more the beauty and the struggles of the Indigenous people.

I loved this course. Much of the content was new to me and the instructors did a wonderful job presenting it. If there is a follow up course I would sign up for it quickly. Also if there is a book covering the material I would buy it.

Learned how much was missing from my primary and secondary education programs. Thank you for putting this together and making it easy to access. It is a great intro to some of the cultures and the history of Indigenous people in Canada.
