Linear Algebra – 2nd edition

Educational Level: Bachelor

The key ideas of linear algebra are presented from a geometric viewpoint, starting with vectors, lines, and planes. Standard topics such as linear systems, matrices, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and orthogonality are treated clearly, followed by more advanced themes like symmetric matrices and discrete dynamical systems.

The book includes many interactive applets that give students hands-on experience, along with numerous embedded exercises offering personalized feedback. Together, these create an engaging environment for learning linear algebra.

Funding for this project was provided by a grant from the NPO (Nationaal Programma Onderwijs).
