You may replace up to 2 quiz grades and 1 HW grade with reviews of linear 
algebra resources.  You may turn in/upload your reviews any time during the semester, but no 
later than Sunday Dec 14 for the wiki  and Monday by 2pm for the lecture note reviews).  


These reviews can be in one of two different formats (if you have ideas for a different type 
of review, 
please let me know):
 <P> 

1.)  Review <a href=2550.html>my lecture notes.  Click on the date for the class notes</a>. Print out the class notes for one 
lecture. Write notes on this print-out denoting what you like and what you would recommend changing. Please also 
identify any parts that you find confusing. You may also include links to additional helpful information on the web.  You may turn in a paper copy of your review to me anytime during the semester.
  Each lecture review will replace up to 1 quiz or 1HW, depending on the depth of the 
review. If you would like the review to replace a HW grade, please clearly indicate this on 
your review. 
<p>

2.)  Find a helpful resourse on the web. Place information about this resource 
on our  <a 
href="https://wiki.uiowa.edu/display/2357065/Matrix+Algebra+Resources">course wiki</a>
under the 
appropriate heading (section or chapter depending on how specific or general it is).  
Include the link to the resource.  Briefly describe the resource and explain how it is 
helpful.  When determining what to include in your description, think about what would be 
helpful to you and your classmates in order to determine if they would like to check out 
this resource.  Too wordy can be distracting so you only want to include what is helpful.  
Be brief.

I have listed some possible resources below, BUT

<P>
<em>NOTE:</em> Most of the references listed below are NOT suitable for this course.  We will only cover
some (but not all) of the basics.  Many of the references below, for example, cover linear
transformations and may assume that knowledge in later sections.  Unfortunately, we do not have time to
cover linear transformations.  However, there are still some sections and/or examples that you may find
helpful.   If you find something helpful, post the link on our course blog.
