Current Work in the Inquiry-Oriented Linear Algebra (IOLA) Project

For over a decade, the Inquiry-Oriented Linear Algebra (IOLA) project has developed research-based curricular materials and instructional support materials for an inquiry-oriented approach to the teaching and learning of introductory linear algebra at the university level. In this talk we will share recent results from the IOLA project. In particular, we will introduce four new curricular units, briefly discuss how the new units fit relative to previously developed materials, and illustrate the units with an example from our new unit on null space and column space. We will also discuss some student approaches we encountered during our research-based curriculum development.
