Current status of Linear Algebra Model Course Assignments

Topic NPL Custom Header Updated Notes
Vectors
Dot product and Vector Projections 15 2011-06-25
Geometric objects - lines and planes 14 X 2011-06-25 This set could use some work in connecting to linear algebra. For example given standard equation of plane, find parametric equations
Orthogonal decomposition
Systems of equations and elimination
Row operations and Row Echelon Form 11 X 2011-06-25
Gaussian elimination (Free variables & Consistency of solutions) 27 X 2011-06-25
Rank of a Matrix 2 2011-06-26 There are some "rank" problems in the NPL in Linear Algebra/Matrices/Matrix Operations
Matrix operations and algebra
Matrix arithmetic 15 1 X 2011-06-25
Matrix inverse 17 X 2011-06-26
Matrix equations 5 X 2011-06-25
Determinant and Cramer's Rule 30 1 X 2011-06-26 Need to add Cramer's rule Qs
Elementary matrices and LU Decomposition 3 2 X 2011-06-25 There are determinant of elementary matrix questions in the NPL in Linear Algebra/Matrices/Determinants
Vector space preliminaries
Definition of a vector space and subspaces 8 X 2011-06-26
Euclidean vector spaces 4 2011-06-25
Linear combinations and span 14 X 2011-06-26
Linear independence 13 X 2011-06-26
Basis and dimension 26 2011-06-26
Coordinate vectors and change of basis
Row space, column space, and null space. Rank and Nullity 7 2011-06-26 5 problems say "kernel" and "image." Change to Column space & null space? Or include both in some/all.
Geometric examples
Linear transformations
Definition of a linear transformation 1 2011-06-26 The NPL needs more problems
Matrix of a linear transformation 16 2011-06-26 There are some problems in the NPL on transformation of vector spaces of matrices, but not included in model course
