Coursera Indigenous Canada - Start anytime at no cost!
Today I just want to highlight a great learning opportunity which you may or may not have heard about. Today I am talking about the course that became very popular through social media because of the great Canadian actor, Dan Levy!
This course is offered on an online platform for free and was created by the University of Alberta.
From the site:
Indigenous Canada is a 12-lesson Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) from the Faculty of Native Studies that explores Indigenous histories and contemporary issues in Canada. From an Indigenous perspective, this course explores key issues facing Indigenous peoples today from a historical and critical perspective highlighting national and local Indigenous-settler relations. Topics for the 12 lessons include the fur trade and other exchange relationships, land claims and environmental impacts, legal systems and rights, political conflicts and alliances, Indigenous political activism, and contemporary Indigenous life, art and its expressions.
If you are interested in working through this course and would like to create a parent/caregiver study group send an email to bloordaleparents@gmail.com
Tomorrow we will be back with some book suggestions that you may find valuable in learning more about T&R and the history that many of us are not fully aware of ... yet!
