This is a collection of notes for a one-semester course in linear algebra taught at San Jacinto College (Houston, Texas). The notes are suited for a first course in linear algebra taken by students who have completed one year of single-variable calculus. Unlike most traditional linear algebra textbooks, these notes begin with the ideas of vector spaces and linear functions (transformations). Since functions play a central role in calculus, this approach should seem more natural to students. Systems of linear equations and matrix theory are presented afterward as consequences of the preceding material. The result is an economical (only 175 pages) treatment of the main themes of linear algebra along with a few applications of the theory to geometry, economics, and cryptography.

The Open Educational Resources (OER) in Texas Statewide Playbook is a resource developed by practitioners and advocates actively involved in the labor of open education to guide new and expanding OER work at institutions of higher education. The Playbook is the result of partnerships between the Division of Digital Learning, the Institution for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education (ISKME) – creators of OER Commons and experts in open education practice and research – and faculty, librarians, staff, and administrators from institutions and systems across Texas. It aims to support institutions as they work to build capacity and drive systems change around OER. It also serves as a guiding document for institutions that have not yet engaged in OER work or taken advantage of existing programs and opportunities. The hope is that the Texas OER Playbook will serve as a companion on the journey towards OER awareness and advocacy at your institution.
