I really enjoyed the course! So much I didn't know about the history. I also didn't have a true understanding why there is so much discourse between Indigenous people and government. Total eye opener.

Very informative, I really enjoyed this course. The perspectives presented were eye-opening, and it was nice to be able to learn more about Indigenous peoples and what they have endured on their land.

Lots of unnecessary material and extremely longwinded presentation. If you can make the video play back rate to 4x speed that would greatly assist.

Content was informative, but I did not find the videos engaging and found learning, for me, was better absorbed through reading through the PDF's.

The video did not give much indication as to the correct answers. The time said it would take 20 hours, it took me well past that. Not impressed.

History is not my strongest subject. Although I loved the content... I found this too difficult and had to drop course.

The reason I have taken this Indigenous Canada course it was advertised as a free of charge and yet they charge me $64 dollars for the certificate I never wanted! Coursera is a scammer fake organization. Stay away from this Coursera.org. Do not register any of your credit cards with this scammer origanization.

I wouldn’t have a clue why anyone would stick with this. There are much more efficient, practical resources out there that are free and actually account for something. The knowledge you are expected to gather from the course is outrageous. Have fun learning!

I am extremely disappointed with such a powerful dose of leftist propaganda and contempt for the European civilizational contribution to these wild regions of the world.
