Description

When filtering courses on the default course catalog page, for example, https://teak.demo.edly.io/courses, the UI presents checkboxes that behave like radio buttons.

Image

I think that this is unexpected by most users and that some users would want them to behave as checkboxes so they might, say, filter by more than one language.
