To former and future students looking to LAFF: Over at ulaff.net, Robert and Maggie just released all of the notes in a downloadable PDF with embedded hyperlinks to the videos. It's a whopping 900 pages of some of the best linear algebra instruction you will ever find, with accompanying videos, homeworks, exams, and notebooks. Best of all, it is available on a generous "pick your price" model ensuring everyone can have access to this great material regardless of income. It looks like the instructors have plans to update and refine the material as time progresses, and supporting them in that effort is a worthy cause. This material is so fundamental to many different areas that everyone should be able to LAFF with Robert and Maggie! To the course staff: Thanks so much for one of the most well done MOOCs I've ever taken!

This is how Linear Algebra should be thought at any institution of learning. The course fulfills its objective very well as to the relationship between mathematical abstraction and programming abstractions - a sustained focus of this objective is very obvious throughout the 12 weeks. I hope they would continue offering this course in the future. I have seen no better alternative to this type of Linear Algebra instruction. If you are a scientist or engineer, this one is for you. It shows the nuts and bolts of those linear algebra packages we continually use but never bothered to wonder what's inside those packages.
