Please note that the schedule is tentative and may be changed without notice, especially before the semester begins. This is the master calendar. Your instructor's calendar may differ slightly, so follow your instructor's calendar carefully.
Sections listed below correspond to Interactive Linear Algebra by Margalit and Rabinoff.
The WeBWork problems are numbered according to the alternate textbook, Lay's Linear Algebra, and as such all WeBWork assignments are one chapter higher than what is listed here but are named correctly for the section (so 3.1 is really 4.1 Matrix Transformations in WeBWork due to this difference in numbering between the books).
