Speakers
Description
In January 2023, the authors published the second edition of Linear Algebra: An Interactive Introduction, which the speaker shared at the ILAS Education Session at JMM in Boston.
Thanks to a $ 2.1 million grant from the United States Department of Education entitled “Fortifying Open Education: Scaling Ximera for Enduring Impact”, the authors have been able to enhance the online textbook in numerous ways. The book is now on its third edition, and the authors hope to release a fourth edition this fall.
This talk will showcase the Explorations which utilize the capabilities of Ximera. Some of the Octave exercises will also be demonstrated. Instructors who use other textbooks may benefit from using one or two of these activities in their classroom.
