Interactive Linear Algebra with Maple V is a complete software package for doing linear algebra. It consists of the printed book, and a CD- ROM (with diskettes available on request).The authors' philosophy is based on the belief that students who study mathematics must enjoy, understand, assimilate, and apply the skills and concepts they study. Students using this text will learn the concepts of linear algebra and their applications in an interactive environment characterized by experimentation, exploration, and discovery learning. Students will play a fundamental and an active role rather than a passive one throughout the learning process.
Interactive software facilitates understanding of the topic.
Includes animations which explain linear algebra concepts geometrically * A unique library of interactive "high-level" functions written in Maple V that can be used in different modes *
A collection of applications stresses modeling and the utility of linear algebra concepts in various disciplines * GUI for easy navigation through the chapters
