The university of Alberta is offering a free online course on Indigenous Canada from the Faculty of Native Studies.
The course explores Indigenous histories and contemporary issues in Canada from an Indigenous perspective, and issues from a historical and critical viewpoint highlighting national and local Indigenous-settler relations.
Indigenous Canada is for students from faculties outside the Faculty of Native Studies with an interest in acquiring a basic familiarity with Indigenous/non-Indigenous relationships.
The topics covered include:

The fur trade and other exchange relationships,
Land claims and environmental impacts, Legal systems and rights,
Political conflicts and alliances,
Indigenous political activism,
Contemporary Indigenous life, art and its expressions.

This beginner level course consists of twelve modules, each with a series of video lectures, a set of course notes and course glossary, and required and recommended readings for 12 weeks.
