This course needs to be a requirement to complete high school in Canada.

Please let me know how I can support this initiative?

Cheers Christine

PS I purchased a certificate and cannot figure out how I will receive it? Thank you

This course is so so important. I will be getting my kids to take it as well since they don't teach enough of this in public schools! Everyone should take this course, it was engaging, clear and concise, and I learned so much.

Absolutely necessary for all Canadians! Such an important and neglected topic in our country's education system. Thank you to Dr. Tracy Bear and Dr. Paul Gareau for putting together such an amazing and well thought out course.

FANTASTIC, I LEARNED SO MUCH AND HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT FOR THE INDIGINOUS CULTURE AND PEOPLES. THIS HAS PROVIDED ME WITH SO MUCH NEEDED KNOWLEDGE AND I INTEND ON CONTINUING MY EDUCATION IN INDIGENOUS CULTURE BEYOND THIS COURSE.

I really appreciated the many topics and issues covered in this course. It also made me realize that I have so very much more to learn. I look forward to using this knowledge and perspective in teaching my high school courses.

Great course material! Very enlightening for a settler who has never seen or heard these things before. This course material needs to be infused into the fabric of our nations education. Thank you for making this available.

I learned a lot in this course. Just an overall great course and I needed to learn what was taught in these lessons. I am more aware of the history of Indegenous people in Canada and every Canadian should take this course.

This course is very informative, i have learned alot from this course that has helped me to acknowledge the past for indigenous peoples so i may learn from tgis to excell in the future with tespect to indigenous individuals.

Much more than a course. I learned a tremendous amount and relearned a lot of what I thought was the correct history. Very worthwhile and puts into perspective some of the current issues and challenges we have going forward.

I traveled many places with the presenters, who were all engaging and excellent teachers. This course covers a lot of breadth, and taking this course should be required for all (ALL) political players, Federal and Provincial.

A must for every Canadian. Thank you to the Indigenous people who put together these resources to educate white people like myself - it has been received with gratitude, and I will work towards reconciliation in my own life.

Thank you so much! I learned so many important things. This course should be taught to all Canadians in our schools. I will continue to pass on the knowledge I have and continue to read and remember and I will never forget.

Absolutely superb course. I have learned so much and the course exceeded my expectations. I am now embarking on a journey to education myself and those around me about the history of our country and the First Nations peoples.

Informative, educational and truly eye-opening. East to West, Canada’s colonial history is being played on a loud speaker after being silenced for so long. Being ignorant is no longer an excuse in this day and age. Thank you!

I enjoyed the course. Being of English descent it was uncomfortable at times to hear the history. Very important for everyone to learn the history and understand the impacts of residential schools and racism and colonialism

A very well put together and streamlined look at the covered up side of Canadas relationship to it's indigenous people. Walks the fine line between vague and overly dense, keeping it engaging and a good source of information.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I have always had a fascination with the Indigenous culture. This course taught me so much more. I am positive the knowledge I gained will help me in my career as an Early Childhood Educator.

Great course! Very in-depth and thorough. I have learned more about the Indigenous culture in this course than I did during my years in high school and at the post-secondary level. I highly recommend this course to everyone!

I care about indigenous people all over the world. Enviroment issues are also alerting! I see openess in this course somehow, which I didn't even expect. And I would like to thank coursera for getting me in touch to Alberta.

Great course and encourage everyone to take this! It's sure not what we were taught in Grade 5 History class. I will now find more ways to further my education and knowledge in Indigenous Studies esp Art.

Thank you so much!

Tellement bien organisé ! Facile a suivre et comprendre et le message, les histoires et les effets de la colonisation sur les traditions et les gens de ses communautés. Nous devons tous connaitre ceci pour mieux s'entraider.

I enjoyed taking this course and hope more people will take it to help better educate themselves regarding indigenous history, governance, life, residential schools, art and many more topics. Thanks for offering this course,

I would recommend everyone to take this course because of the professionalism displayed by the professor as well as the knowledge that is offered on a topic that is extremely sensitive and important to our Canadian heritage.

An absolute honor to be able to reflect of the Indigenous perspective. Everything from art, social justice, to historical context. I hope to continue my jouney of learning and ongoing respect of these incredible communities.

Very educational in learning Canada’s history. The truth in all manners good and bad and how Aboriginal culture can teach us better ways of living, to be accountable for how we treat one another and the environment we share.
