Fall 2021: Math 1553 (Intro to Linear Algebra)

Last updated: 6 Dec 2021

*Georgia Tech no longer uses BlueJeans and so the videos linked below no longer work.

———-

This fall I am teaching Math 1553, Intro to Linear Algebra, Section J.

My office hours are Tues 4-5p and Wed, Thur 11a-12p.  For everyone’s safety my office hours are virtual.  See the Canvas Announcements for the BlueJeans link.  You can also email me at wheeler at math dot gatech dot edu.

Most of the course materials are on Canvas, except for the lecture videos, which are posted here (you must be a member of the Georgia Tech organization to be able to view them):
