This course is very informational and it presents a vital perspective in today’s world. I would suggest this course to anyone and everyone seeking to learn more about racism in Canada from an Indigenous perspective. Thank you to those who put this course together - I am forever changed for the better.

This course is incredibly informative and should be required for all Canadians. Although I learned much of this in university as part of my pre-service teacher training, it provides a succinct overview of much of the content I learned with the addition of exploring other topics such as gender and art.

I feel so enriched to have taken part in the learning offered by this course. I commend all those involved in the research, production, narration and transcription of the course and look forward to the chance to learn even more in the future, should U of A develop any more Indigenous studies courses.

Very informative and really enjoyed the course. I now have an even greater compassion and understandIng of Indigenous peoples. I really appreciate that the U of A has offered a course with such valuable life changing information. I've learned things that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

This course was incredibly well done, interesting, and continually related the material to current indigenous issues, to put all that was learned into context. I learned so much that was missing from my secondary education in terms of Indigenous canadian history. I would highly recommend this course!

This course was a good introduction for me into understanding Indigenous topics.

- I appreciated that the course provided study notes summarizing the videos as I prefer to have notes in front of me to study.

- I appreciated the objective presentation of the material - it provided a good perspective

Excellent course. So much valuable information gained through taking this course, that I, as a settler never was taught through history of Canada. I highly recommend this course to anyone living in Canada who is non-Indigenous. Loved the artwork that told the stories of the subjects from each module.

Excellent course! Presenting the actual facts of our history was eye-opening and certainly led to a deeper level of understanding of Indigenous perspectives in today's society. Bravo to the Faculty of Native Studies at the U of A for creating this course and making it accessible to all Canadians.

This was truly an amazing course for me. I learned so much and am embarassed by how little I know about the trials and tribulations of the native people with whom I share this land with. Such an eye openier and a spark for me to be a better person. Thank you for allowing me to learn from all of you.

I found this course very helpful. I have done some studies in Indigenous Canadian Studies before, but found that the comprehensiveness of the course, and cyclical style of teaching to be very beneficial. I would recommend this to anyone looking to learn more perspectives and continue their learning.

This course is an exceptional foundation for anyone who is seeking to better understand introductory concepts and history of indigenous peoples of Canada. It inspires me to continue my own education and seek out additional opportunities to learn and engage with indigenous ways of knowing and being.

The through lines of the course made it easy to follow. The way the faculty and presenters dug into topics not typically covered in Canadian K-12 education made this a wonderful course to expand my understanding of Indigenous past, present and future. Thank you so much for the work on this course.

Thank you. I gained citizenship at the start of the year and am proud to call myself Canadian. I very much appreciate the opportunity to learn about Indigenous Peoples and their culture. It was very well structured and presented. My wife is from Edmonton so I may have to stop by U of A sometime.

Excellent course content presented in a very user friendly way. All aspects of this course were very good. I learned a lot and was inspired to read more and learn more. I was aware of many of the issues presented, but the course materials added depth and the sensitivity of the Indigenous experience.

This course was a fantastic compliment to other courses and workshops I have taken to enhance my knowledge of Indigenous people and learn how to become a better ally. The instructors were fantastic, the format was well designed and the follow-ups with Dan Levy always interesting. Well done U of A!

Thank you for sharing your time, knowledge and expertise with us throughout this course, to everyone involved. It has been thought provoking, valuable and truly fascinating. As an immigrant to Canada, I feel that this course should be recommended to every person that lives here, short or long term.

What a wonderfully created course. I found this so fascinating and loved learning through all the material provided. The videos were clear, concise and informative. The extra reading, artwork and input from additional experiences added to the learning experience. Would highly recommend this course!

A truly illuminating course, giving an introductory view of First Nations in a variety of aspects. Every Canadian needs to learn and understand the place of First Nations on this land we call home. Professor Bear and the instructors are terrific! I'm thrilled that this is my first MOOC certificate!

An extremely important piece of information for anyone who calls Canada home. I feel that the content, although devastating and at times hard to believe due to the severe and destructive nature of colonization, is enriching and empowering. This course should be mandatory learning for all Canadians.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course and felt the information provided was clear and thought provoking. It gave great insight into the true history of Canada. It challenges the student to look at the world, government and institutions with a new perspective. I believe everyone should take this course.

This was wonderful.

It is what I should have been taught and learned in Social Studies, but was sadly missing from the curriculum in the nineties when I attended high school. Thank you for this thought provoking and fascinating foray in to Canada's true history. I appreciated the learning so much.

"Indigenous Canada" is an excellent and informative course. While Canada has far to go and much still to learn, this course provides a step toward better understanding of our true history, broadening community, and education for any who are ready to learn. Thank you so much for this opportunity.

This course really helps to tie in a lot of the gaps that you didn't even realize existed in the History of Canada. This needs to be mandatory for all Canadian Students moving forward. It was interesting, easy to follow and highly visual. One of the best University level courses that I have taken!

Very informative and in many ways surprising. As a Canadian that has gone through the school system, I am surprised how little, nothing really, I learned about Canadian Indigenous history. It's a course I highly recommend to anyone who wants to gain a more complete picture of our county's history.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course- esp. the stories shared by the individuals themselves

I very much enjoyed the ease of learning by the manner in which the lessons were delivered

I especially loved the art as well

I loved the music and would love to learn more about the language in the drumming songs
