\section{Basic Course Information}

\noindent{\bf Prerequisites:} Math 2145

\noindent{\bf Textbook and Content:} {\em Linear Algebra} by J. Fraleigh
and R. Beauregard,
3rd Edition.

Algebra and Geometry of finite dimensional linear spaces, linear
transformations,
algebra of matrices, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Chapter 1-7,
10(optional).

\noindent{\bf Class Time:} 11:30 am - 12:20pm. Start on Monday January 12, 
2009.

\noindent{\bf Class Room:} HES 029.

\noindent{\bf Office Hours:} MWF 10:30am -11:30 noon.
{\bf BY APPOINTMENT}. Highly recommended to
take full and consistent advantage on my office hours. Feel free to
call/email/fax me at any time or use D2L. Please do not hesitate to seek any 
appropriate out--of--class help from me in your efforts to master the subjects.

\section{Exams, Quizzes and Grade}

Your grade will be determined by the scores on the 3 fifty--minute tests
each of which is worth 100pts. 
Quizzes and Homework is worth 100pts and
the final exams is worth 200pts. Your final grade will be
$E^{'}s + Q + F:$

\noindent{510--600} as {\bf A};   450--509 as {\bf B};   390--449 as {\bf C};
330--389 as {\bf D}; 0--329 as {\bf F}.

\noindent{The cutoff} might be lower slightly at the end of the term,
but this
is not guaranteed. If you can not take an hour test because of medical
reason
or other emergency, please notify me {\bf IN ADVANCE} or hand in your
{\bf written proof}
for excuse. Make--up exams will be scheduled ONLY in those cases with
{\bf proofs}.

\noindent{\bf Quizzes:} Each quiz will be picked from your homework
problems.
No make--up quizzes will be given. Your two lowest quiz or homework scores will be
dropped. 


\noindent{\bf First Exam:} February 20;

\noindent{\bf Second Exam:} March 27;

\noindent{\bf Third Exam:} April 24;

\noindent{\bf Final Exam:} Friday May 8, 10:00am -- 11:50am. 

\subsection{Attendance Policy} Attendance is not a part of your grade in
the
course, but it is {\bf VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED}. You are responsible for
all
material covered in class and all assignments. Experience has shown a
definite
correlation between poor class attendance and low grades.

\subsection{Main Office} Main office of Math Department 401 MS, phone
number:
405--744--5688. Fax number: 405 -- 744 -- 8275.

\subsection{Homework} Please {\bf DO THE HOMEWORK}. The purpose of
homework is to
provide a way for you to practice and get feedback on what you are
doing. I suggest
that you first read each section and try the assigned problems on your
own. Then discuss
your solutions with others in the class. Finally re-read your solutions
and make corrections
as needed. {\em Practice makes perfect}.

{\bf Remember to use the tutors to help you learn. Not to do the
homework for you}.

\subsection{General Comments} To succeed in college, each student must
take responsibility
for his or her own learning. Thinking of attending college as your job.
Just as you
arrive at work on time and finish an assigned work on time, so should
you attend
class every day and finish all your daily homework.

\noindent{(i)} Please be advised that {\bf Doing your homework on time
is
absolutely essential} for you to get better grade. Quiz and exam
problems will
be largely chosen from your homework problems.

\noindent{(ii)} On average you should expect to spend two hours studying
outside of class
for every hour in class. Some student will require more. It is best to
do this on
a regular basis after {\em every class} if possible. The learning of
mathematics
is cumulative, and keeping up with the work is necessary in order to
follow our class
discussion. Our mind absorbs new ideas best in smaller, regular does.

\noindent{(iii)} Your study time {\bf SHOULD} start with the book and
your class notes
with pencil in hand to work out the calculations. The homework problems
are not
identical to the book examples and can require considerable thoughts.
Give each
problem a serious effort before seeking help.

\noindent{(iv)} Ask for help whenever you feel you need it from your
instructor,
from your classmates and any other sources.
