Homework assignments, as appropriate to the discipline, are part of the course.
Linear algebra is an important component of undergraduate mathematics.
Because linear algebra provides the tools for dealing with problems in fields ranging from forestry to nuclear physics, it is desirable to make the subject accessible to students from a variety of disciplines. At the practical level, matrix theory and the related vector-space concepts provide a language and a powerful computational framework for posing and solving important problems. Beyond this, elementary linear algebra is a valuable introduction to mathematical abstraction and logical reasoning because the theoretical development is self-contained, consistent, and accessible to most students. You are expected to study the material given in the course outline on you own. Exercise sets are given for each section, which you must finish according to schedule.
