This is a must for anyone, non-indigenous to Indigenous to complete. Should also be a part of the process to become a Canadian citizen. Very well done. I thank you for opening my eyes, mind and heart.

This is a great survey course about Indigenous Canada. As a participant, I have learned and unlearned so much about Indigenous Canadians, and more important, this course has inspired me to learn more.

There was many new learnings in the course and helped to reframe previous education from a traditional education from a colonial perspective.

A more balanced approach would be helpful. Were there not wars, famines, etc before settlers arrived? Were elders and tradition always right?

Some questions on the quiz were tricky, but they could be more about emphasizing reading the notes. Other than that, it was a great course!

It needs to update but good history. I especially enjoyed Week 12 on Indigenous Art. I would have liked to see more of the artists work.

Reason for the Level 4, is nothing is perfect, however it was hard not to give the 5. Excellent course and I would recommend it to others

Very interesting to learn of new perspectives. It was a good course to build on other Indigenous studies courses taken prior to this one.

I wish that they teach more about why they call " Indian", Religion, Canada name history. I found that questions for quiz a little long.

The content was excellent and I learned a lot, but the instructional design was very poor. I gave 4 stars based on the content alone.
