I did find it a bit light on details, so I found I didn't walk away learning much. But it's just an intro course, and I have no talent for sociology so ymmv. But I hope that later courses are more in-depth.

interesting and informative. Would have welcomed more information on worldview, culture and history of Metis and Inuit people with a comparison to Indian people. Perhaps this is offered in another course?

Some information presented was quite predjudice against non-Indig peoples. Some broader perspectives would be good to include. Thank you. I learned some things and will continue to persue the subject.

Good Course, I learned a lot.

I hope when they are taking time to review the content, quizzes, etc. there is someone who is able to correct all of the errors that were noted in the discussion forums.

Very informative but the presentation is horrible. The lecturers just read out a slightly different version of the pdf instead of presenting freely. Very tiring. The interviews were great tho.

Many sections of the course were interesting (especially the early history related to the fur trade, etc.); however, some of the legal sections were a bit overwhelming and difficult to follow.

I think that the course would be stronger with more emphasis on evidence and data than opinion. The first part was much better than the second part, which was nearly all theory and opinion.

Most of the course was well done. However, it needs a good editor. Week 7 was particularly frustrating with repetition and disorganized presentations.

Overall, worthwhile. Glad I took it.

He tenido muchas dificultades por NO disponer de los subtítulos en todos los videos Ni en los cuestionarios,por lo que,sintiendolo mucho, he decidido dejar el curso.

Gracias.

Saludos cordiales

Information in later modules could have been presented more concisely. In some topics it seemed like perspectives were limited and controversial information was often glossed over.

This course was a great overview of many areas of Indigenous Canada, however I found many of the videos too dull to maintain my attention. When other speakers were used, it helped.

Beyond fantastic course on First Nations. I truly wish this was taught to me at an earlier age. Understanding First Nations and the history of this land is crucial in our education.

was a great course learned a lot but I found the questions were a little hard because it used words I never heard of or seen before, should be something taught in the readings.

I had much higher hopes for learning of the indigenous history aspect of Canadian colonization. I found the course to systemically biased to be of much, if any credible use.

I appreciate how balanced the course content felt, not an overly negative communication but highlighted positives and negatives of our Indigenous history in Canada.

Seemed one-sided and I didn't learn much realistic/partical stuff like what happens on a reserve, the organization of the bands, etc. But I did enjoy the history.

Great learning content, but the instructional methods is lacking (e.g., many things as described by a speaker, but not shown on screen, for example artwork)

The course pulled the majority of the data from the 1990’s. I feel a lot has changed in 25 years. I feel more currant data could have been represented.

I wish the videos shared as much knowledge as the notes. I feel like the course itself deserves to be much longer but some knowledge is better than none.

Not engaging enough for readers. it can be simplified by focusing on the essentials. Too many details make you miss the main goal behind this course.

While the topic was interesting, the format was not engaging. 12 lessons with the same limited interaction; video then quiz. It got a bit dry.

Thank you, I appreciate the the great deal of research that went into this course. It was thorough and delivered in a objective manner.

Have tried twice to complete and submit comments but they've evaporated w/o me consciously pushing "submit" ...maybe you got them.

Content was excellent, I learned a lot!!!... but I struggled each time with tech challenges which brought significant frustration.

A lot of blanket statements and not a lot of evidence presented. Overall, it was very informative and eye opening.
