Linear algebra is relatively easy for students during the early stages of the course, when the material is presented in a familiar, concrete setting. But when abstract concepts are introduced, students often hit a brick wall. Lay introduces the abstract concepts of linear algebra in a familiar, concrete setting, develops them gradually, and returns to them again and again throughout the text.

An exhaustive set of on-line computational tools you can use to solve systems of equations, transform systems into Gauss Jordan matrices, perform row operations, transform a matrix into reduced row echelon form, calculate inverse matrices, and more. Although the American Board standards require you to perform these and other operations by hand, this is an excellent resource to help you double check your work as you review, because it works out any problem step by step, explaining each step along the way.

Accessible via the Internet, ABCTE’s Mathematics Refresher Course contains more than 300 pages of material and was designed to help you review your knowledge for the mathematics exam. The course is self-paced, allowing you to dedicate more time to material that needs intense review and skip over material you already know. The course incorporates animated tutorials and activities, chapter quizzes, detailed lessons and illustrations, and a video demonstration component.

Enrolled candidates can access the course through http://www.abcte.org/courses/mathematics/index.html using their ABCTE username and password.
