The text book
is Linear
Algebra and Its Applications 3rd edition update by David C. Lay
The author also makes available for download free of charge a set of handouts.
I will be following these fairly closely. You might find it helpful to
print these and bring them to the class so
that you can focus on the material being presented and take a few notes
rather than feverishly transcribing what's on the blackboard!
The course
co-ordinator is Dr.
Elena Devdariani.
Here is
the updated course outline
Here is a list of practice
problems for the entire term.

The
review sessions for first
