A course created one year ago by the University of Alberta was the most popular online course in Canada in 2017, and is already making inroads into how Canadians understand the history of Indigenous people.

With almost 20,000 people enrolled, the free online 12-module course called Indigenous Canada teaches those from an Indigenous perspective.

“A lot of Indigenous experiences in Canada have been silenced by a normative settler vision of Canada and the history of it,” said Paul Gareau, assistant professor with the U of A’s Native Studies program and the academic lead for the course.

“This course focuses on telling an Indigenous experience of Canada.”

“The course is available for free through Coursera here.”

I’ve done this course and it is fantastic. I learnt so much about the various Indigenous cultures across Canada along with history and was given a much better understanding of what Indigenous people face. 

It only takes an hour or so per course and you can do them at your own pace.

Vegetal Cities

A reimagining of city design by Belgian architect Luc Schuiten. His concept is to blend the natural with the artificial by using living architecture to construct urban centres. To do this Schuiten envisions new ways to plant trees and shape their growth, pruning and grafting them into buildings and residences, using textiles and bioluminescence. Honestly, it’s one of the most delightfully solarpunk city concepts out there!

“The City of Habitarbres [habitable trees] develops in a remodeled forest environment tailored to the needs of a new lifestyle. The people are no longer consumers, but the actors of a new ecosystem that enables the management and the development of every term and ensures a long-term evolution of the city.”
