Thanks for teaching me a lot about indigenous history in Canada. I am inspired to learn more. I just finished Chelsea Vowel’s book, Indigenous Writes and I’m currently reading the summary of the RCAP.

Great curse learnt a lot. The only reason for not giving it a 5-star review is week 9 needs to be reworked. Took me 5 tries to pass the quiz for it

I really enjoyed this course. It was enlightning, frustrating and sad at the same time. We should all take the time to learn about our own history.

Great work and great information! I feel much more informed on issues the First Nations communities have faced and continue to face now. Thank you!

Great introduction to indigineous culture. Makes you rethink how "the West" is looking at the world and shaping it. This is a mind changing course.

Some of the quiz content focussed more on minute specific details vs an understanding of the modules general message. Fantastic course. Thank you

I was hoping the course would go into more details about Aboriginals, but it is an introductory course, so in that regard it did the job I suppose

Overall it was very informative. I was however disappointed that the Maritimes were not recognized and discussed as I feel they should have been.

This is a great course. It provides a good overview of the history of indigenous people before and after contact, as well as contemporary issues.

Great introduction to the topic - for some weeks I wish there would have been maybe book recommendations if you wish to further your knowledge.

It was a very informative course, there were some inconsistencies between the videos, the notes and the quizes. Should be checked for accuracy.

more visual material would have been welcome, ie seeing some of the art that was discussed in the final module. Overall, a wonderful resource.

Well done. I learened alot. It has been 40 years since I have taken a CDN history course. Now I realize how biased grade school history was.

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?

Well done. Very informative. I have gained a new appreciation of the indigenous community and look forward to learning more in the future.

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.

I learned quite a bit in the course. I found out that even as a metis person, I had many misconceptions about current issues and history.
