Please note, at all the seminars, there will be a 45-minute lunch break at about 12 noon, and another 45-minute supper break at about 6:00 pm.  There will also be additional 5 or 10-minute breaks throughout the seminar.  It is a good idea to bring your own food and drink as there is not much open on campus on the weekend.

Seminar 1:  Matrices for Management Volume 1

Matrices for Management Midterm Exam Prep Seminar is actually designed to prepare students taking the MATH 1300 course for their midterm exam. However, the two courses are very similar prior to the midterm exam, so the seminar should also be very helpful to students preparing to write the MATH 1310 midterm exam on Feb. 27, 2012.. Grant will be covering Lessons 1 to 8 in his study book (these are the lessons relevant to the midterm exam). In addition, any MATH 1310 student who attends the seminar will be sent Grant's Audio Lecture teaching Lesson 9: Markov Analysis, if that topic is included on their midterm exam.

Specifically, that means Grant will be teaching:
Lesson 1: Systems of Linear Equations
Lesson 2: Row-Reduction
Lesson 3: Matrix Math
Lesson 4: Inverse Matrices and Applications
Lesson 5: Elementary Matrices
Lesson 6: Determinants and their Properties
Lesson 7: Adjoint Matrices
Lesson 8: Cramer's Rule
Lesson 9: Markov Analysis
(Lesson 9 is taught strictly by Audio Lecture; it will not be taught live at the seminar.)

This material will not be covered again at Grant's final exam seminar, so those of you taking the course by distance education may also be interested in taking this opportunity to review these lessons even though you have no midterm.

If you have a recent edition of Grant's Matrices for Management Study Book (either the complete book or at least Volume 1), be sure to bring it to the seminar.  Grant is teaching from the September 2011 edition (white cover), but those of you with older books (blue or green covers) should be able to follow along all right.

You are still welcome to come along no matter what book you have, if you have one at all, but be sure to download a copy of Grant's Matrices for Management Midterm Seminar Handout to see the questions he will be discussing.  Come prepared to write a lot of notes though.  If you would like to purchase a copy of Grant's book (no obligation to do so), you can either order one to pick up at UMSU Digital Copy Centre, room 118 University Centre, or you can arrange to have Grant provide you with one at the seminar.  Of course, you will have to pay the list price for the book ($45 + tax) on top of the $40 seminar price.

Please download this handout and bring a copy to the seminar if you do not have Grant's study book.  You should also compare this handout to your book if you have an older edition to ascertain if you think your book is adequate for the seminar.

Seminar 2:  Matrices for Management Volume 2

CANCELLED.  Due to a lack of demand, Grant no longer offers a seminar that specifically teaches the concepts in the MATH 1310 course.  Instead, Grant offers a complete set of Audio Lectures teaching the entire Matrices for Management (MATH 1310) course.  If you are interested in purchasing these Audio Lectures, please contact Grant for more info.

Please do not hesitate to contact Grant if you have any questions.
