Abstract

Teaching practice and the actual situation of students, to improve the quality of teaching linear algebra for a more in-depth discussion in the teaching process, and strengthen the quality of students in mathematics, mathematical thinking ability of students. Linear Algebra concepts and more abstract features of content, from the analysis of the conceptual level, to seize the key words, pay attention to the similarities and differences compared to the concept of teaching, with practical examples to introduce the concept in various different aspects, discusses how to improve the basic concepts of the course classroom teaching, to seize the key breakthroughs in difficult, improve teaching quality. Both theory and practice combined with the author’s personal experience, for Linear Algebra teaching some of the problems discussed how classroom teaching in order to receive good teaching.
