awesome subject, i feel this subject or a subject like it should be mandatory for all students. it covers a lot of important things with a surprising level of depth for how quickly the content moved. the tutorials were fantastic and my tutor was just the sweetest. we had so many great discussions and i feel like my brain grew a couple sizes over the 12 weeks. the assignments were also quite clear and straightforward and let you choose your own areas to focus on. the lecturer had a very very soft voice though... nothing wrong with that inherently but i would watch the lecture recordings and be struggling to hear what he was saying. other than that fantastic

Loved this subject! Personally, this should be mandatory for all first years, rather than arts discovery. I went into the subject thinking it was going to be pretty surface level knowledge, but all topics were contemporary, nuanced and very relevant to the world today. I also appreciated how diverse the class was- made up on equal balances of non-indigenous and Indigenous students. Topics of Indigenous astronomy, resistance and in-depth analysis of Indigenous education was fabulous! The main lecturers Rachel and Sheelagh are just amazing, and balance as such a great team. I do wish the tutorial had a bit more guided discussion- it was pretty freeformed. The assignments are extremely customisable, where you can focus on whatever main topics are of greatest interest.
