Linear Algebra II  & Tutorial 2b 
(G30 Program, Nagoya University, Spring 2021) ​

Please feel join the Facebook group for this course. (Not mandatory) 

We will use NUCT for the homework submission. Please contact me if you are not in the NUCT course "Linear Algebra II". 
The Zoom link for the first lecture & tutorial are available in NUCT and the Facebook group.

How, Where, When?
Due to the current situation it is not fully decided yet how we will conduct this course. But here is the current plan:

• The lectures are already recorded and available from last year (G30 Linear Algebra II). Instead of recording them again I decided to do more interactive lectures where we do more exercises together. I will ask the students to watch the video lecture from last year before the lectures, but I will also recall the definitions and theorems in the lecture.
  Lecture time: Tuesday 2nd Period (10:30 - 12:00)
  First lecture: 13th April 2021. (Zoom. The meeting ID can be found in NUCT or the Facebook group)
• The Tutorial will be held online. We might change it later in the semester to face-to-face if possible.
  Tutorial time:  Thursday 4th Period (14:45 - 15:30)
  First Tutorial: 15th April 2021  (Zoom. The meeting ID can be found in NUCT or the Facebook group)

If the lectures and/or the Tutorials are face-to-face then the rooms will get announced here in advance.

Grading & Homework submission:
As in Linear Algebra I, there will be just one grade for both the lecture Linear Algebra II and the Math. Tutorial 2b. It will be based on the midterm exam, final exam and homework. Details will follow.
