WEEK01: Vectors & Matrices MAT225 SII 2023

 

(My AP Classroom running Linux from 1994-2018)

WEEK01: Vectors & Matrices MAT225 SII 2023

Dear Students,

Congratulations! You did it! You made it through our first week of MAT225 Multivariate Calculus! We covered chapters 13 & 14 on Vectors & Matrices. We learned about vector addition and subtraction as well as multiplying a vector by a scalar, the dot product and the cross product. We also discussed Matrix arithmetic and Matrix algebra.

We even had our first preTEST review in BreakOut Rooms on Zoom. Remember: 

in our Main Room, "you got questions, I got answers!"

in our BreakOut Rooms, "I got questions, you got answers!"

Please see our BrightSpace/D2L site for screencasts, sample code and handwritten notes: 101-103.

Test taking tips:

0) For ALL zoom sessions: 

NO pajamas, NO bedrooms!


1) Place your webcam such that I can see your workspace during the exam. No cellphones! But preTEST notes, Calculators, Laptops or Tablets are ok.


2) A copy of our TEST is available for download at 9:30AM from D2L so you can set up how you want to take the exam before class starts at 10:05AM (tablet and stylus or pencil and paper).


3) You may use anything on our D2L site to help you during the test.


4) Consult our preTEST solutions during the TEST as a model of how to write complete answers. Show all work supporting each answer.


5) Avail yourself of any computing environment you are familiar with to check your work: Graphing Calculator, Jupyter, etc.


6) Show all work in the spaces provided for each question or clearly labeled on separate sheets of paper.


7) Avoid 1/2 credit errors (round off error, missing units, incorrect notation, incomplete work, illegible work, etc).


8) You may leave class when you are done. Don't be in a hurry, you have all class period. Carefully check all your work, time permiting, before you leave class.


9) Return clearly legible copies of all your work as a single pdf file via school email no later than 15 minutes after you leave class or 1:10PM, whichever comes first (gives you time to use CAMScanner or Squid to prepare your work for uploading). Class ends 12:55PM.


Be well,

NOTE TO READER:
In recent years our independent study class has been about the care and feeding of Linux Clusters: How to Build A Cluster, How To Program A Cluster and What Can We Do With A Cluster? 

BTW, Shadowfax is the name of the cluster we build! FYI, we offer 4 computing courses: 

CSH: Computer Science Honors with an introduction to coding in Python using SAGE, IDLE, VIDLE and Trinket

CSA: AP Computer Science A using CS50, this IDE and this IDE and OpenProcessing

CSI: Computing Science Independent Study using OpenMPI and 

CSL: Computing Science Lab which is a co-requisite for Calculus students using Computer Algebra Systems such as SAGE.
