Peer 2 Peer University
The Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) is an online community of open study groups for short university-level courses. Think of it as online book clubs for open educational resources. The P2PU helps you navigate the wealth of open education materials that are out there, creates small groups of motivated learners, and supports the design and facilitation of courses. Students and tutors get recognition for their work, and we are building pathways to formal credit as well.
Currently P2PU is in a pilot

WildLinAlg17: Rank and Nullity of a Linear Transformation
We begin to discuss linear transformations involving higher dimensions (ie more than three). The kernel and the image are important spaces, or properties of vectors, associated to a linear transformation. The corresponding dimensions are the nullity and the rank, and they satisfy a simple relationship which we derive.
This lecture looks in detail at one particular example, and we try to give a working understanding of four dimensional space and its picotiral representation.
