A good, solid presentation, if a little dry. Can’t go wrong with a good ole PowerPoint-style presentation. If we’re focused on classroom suitability, maybe a few topics could have been cut here and there to keep things moving along and at a good pace, but it’s difficult to say what exactly.

nice try to relate polynomials to shapes and a good explanation, why it’s doomed to fail. However, students might want to know, how the actual vector graphics are drawn. Maybe an outlook on Bezier curves would have made it more complete as a lesson.

A good primer on matrix math, but it never really got back to vector graphics. Also, I don’t think vector graphics are limited to polynomials with the X-Y axes fixed horizontally and vertically. I think vector graphics have a lot more to do with bezier curves.

Thanks for a guided walkthrough linear algebra concepts. I enjoyed the motivation you gave to noticing patterns. Sometimes triangular matrices aren’t obvious to those in high-school/middle-school, so perhaps expound upon of what seems obvious for next time.
