Synopsis

This is a completely interactive linear algebra course. Developed by the authors and class-tested at Penn, Temple and Duke Universities, "Interactive Linear Algebra" runs in MathCad (Windows environment). The subject is taught in a laboratory setting, with or without additional lectures, and students are taught that through this technology-centered approach, mathematics becomes an experimental science. This electronic text guides students through the standard topics in linear algebra, with a carefully planned series of computer-based discussions, examples, questions and projects. MathCad provides the digital tools needed for developing, visualizing, connecting and applying important concepts.

Review

G.J. Porter and D.R. Hill Interactive Linear Algebra A Laboratory Course Using Mathcad (TM) "Porter and Hill take an innovative approach in providing material for a standard introduction to a linear algebra course. They offer the student the opportunity to learn by doing and exploration rather than by the usual textbook and lecture approach."???CHOICE
