Extra resources
  • MIT Open Courseware
    This is a linear algebra course from MIT that you can access entirely online. You can watch videos or read transcripts of both the lectures and recitations, view problem sets with solutions, and even try taking the exams and check your answers afterwards.
  • Khan Academy
    I’m sure this is not the first time you’ve heard of Khan Academy. These videos are more focused on teaching you techniques, rather than theory, and they don’t cover the more advanced topics.
  • Jerry Kazdan's web page
    Dr. Kazdan has taught 312 several times in the past. He has a large collection of links related to linear algebra.

Departmental Math 240 site

Some of the stuff on the department site is for an older version of the course. In particular, vector calculus is no longer part of this course. The material from Fall 2013 or later is up to date.

Here you can find the standard 240 syllabus, old final exams, and some more challenging problems in linear algebra.
