First Real Post: Book-keeping and Vectors.

Hopefully everyone received the email with the syllabus. In case you didn't if put it in the "Downloads" section of this blog.  I recommend that everyone in the course "follow" this blog as I will be posting helpful information including possible extra-credit opportunities.

On to the course material.  We have so far covered vectors up to the start of the cross product.  Here is a good video covering the dot product from MIT Open-Courseware.



Here is a video covering the cross-product:




Comment to this post with more online resources for the course material up to this point. This will count toward your participation grade. I'll give you until class on tuesday to comment, after which I'll post some resources I've found.
