Java Applets -- These were written by Steve Levandosky (the author of our Linear Algebra text) to help students visualize linear transformations, multivariable functions, parametric curves and surfaces, and other things.
Notes on Sets -- These notes were written by a former Math 51 TA; I suggest all students make sure that they are familiar with all of the ideas presented in this document. (Note that some of the material covered there uses the idea of a subspace; you might want to wait until we have covered that in class before reading those sections.)
Discussion of the Linearity of the Change of Basis function (don't look at this until we get to the "Systems of Coordinates" section in the book.)
Sample Proof Questions for the Second Exam
Notes about Multivariable Derivatives -- These notes summarize the lectures in which I deviated from the book. Make sure to read these notes carefully!
