A well balanced and highly informative primer course on Indigenous peoples, history, culture and so much more. I'm excited to share this with others, and would love to engage in more learning on these topics.

Thank you for this educational exercise. I completed this not to find empathy, but to build my own awareness and fill a gap in understanding. I would highly recommend this to anyone, Canadian, or otherwise.

Amazing course and content! Coursera was easy to navigate and it was such a great way to learn about Indigenous Canada while maintaining a course load with my respective University. Would recommend to anyone!

I feel very satisfied with the course and I learned a lot. I wish the last session on Art had been more in depth showing more art of well known artists, Norval Morrisseau and soapstone carving of the Inuit.

Thank you! This course was an excellent starting point to learn about Indigenous Canada. I thought the instructors were engaging and informative. This will be just the start of my learning on this subject.

This was an exceptional course and one that every Canadian should take and should be incorporated in the public school curriculum. Thank you so much to the organizers, faculty and participants in this course.

Phenomenal. Provides such an important and critical view of history that I had never been taught in public education. I believe this content should be taught throughout secondary and post-secondary curricula.

Wonderful! Thank you for this course. I love that this course is accessible to everyone and my hope is that everyone on this land called Canada and beyond takes this course to understand our real shared truth

This course helped me understand a bit better Indigenous history in Canada. I would recommend this for anyone living here because it helps understand current situations through a cultural and historial lens.

The course was awesome and detailed. The presenters Voices were authentic and clear and the course material followed them well - especially in an audio course. Excellent job by the U of A Native Studies !!!!!

Well structure course, very insightful, I took away a lot from this course and think it is a great way to express Indigenous culture and history to those that may not have known much before taking this course

This has given a deep insight to the indigenous people life, struggles,culture, art and their struggle for their acceptance into Canada federal system maintaing their uniqueness ,independance and freedom.

Previously took an Indegenous Culture course as a job requirement and in comparrision the previous course fell short. This course really dug into the why rather than spitting facts at the learner. Well done.

To honor my Kanyen'kehà:ka brothers & sisters, and all members of Turtle clan now and before; The wisdom I gathered from this course is like another stick that I'll add to my bundle to make it even stronger.

I am so glad this course was available to me! I have learned so much about the rich and beautiful culture of the Indigenous people of Canada. Thank you instructors and contributors for putting this together.

I learned a lot of historical Indigenous Canadian that I wasn't taught in school. More about their beliefs, customs, traditional lands, communities and etc. I will definitely recommend this course to others.

Valuable course for anyone interested in increasing their knowledge of aboriginal history and culture in Canada. Thank you to the faculty and staff at the University of Alberta for facilitating this program.

Informative, engaging and thought-provoking. An excellent way to learn more about Indigenous cultures and issues in Canada. It has helped me to further my knowledge and gain greater understanding.

I am a retired math teacher and have not taken any history courses. This course was very interesting and broken in to smaller topics so easy to follow. There was so much that I knew nothing about. Thank you.

Excellent introduction to the history of Canada's Indigenous peoples and the issues that they faced historically, and still face today. Valuable for any Canadian who cares about this issue. Well presented.

Your course offered a wonderful opportunity to learn a new perspective that I had never had access to. I am very grateful. Thank you for opening my eyes.

This course was really well balanced and provided clarity that is lacking in our educational systems and communications from settler leadership. Thank you so much for helping to further educate. Well done.

I really appreciated the new information, as well as insights into events I was already somewhat aware of. As a caucasian teacher, it is vitally important for me to learn history from multiple perspectives!

Confirmed and deepened my understanding of Canada and its slow progress to recognize the thanks and debt we owe to our indigenous co-inhabitants and their ancestors resulting from our colonization behaviour.

This course not only taught me a whole new perspective but it has also started a conversation within my family about our history and how to recognise a new historical view. Thank-You! This has been amazing!
