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.

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.

This course is beyond stupid. Most of the information was taught in grade school. I understand it may be to teach those who don't know this stuff, but this should not be a application requirement to a school for any reason.

Additionally, this course pushes the bullshit liberal left-wing political agenda rather than actually teaching about the history of the First Nations. The UofA, being an educational institution, should be ashamed of prioritizing the political agenda rather than prioritizing the education of their students.

Apart from being a colossal waste of my time, the last major reason this course is stupid is that it is required to apply for a program that doesn't even relate to the subject. I am going into the stem field and I will NEVER need this information in my future job or education.

If 0 stars is possible you would get -5 stars.

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.
