I was wondering if there is a way to learn linear algebra from beginner to advanced level by studying it myself. I want to collect a number of books, video lectures, tutorials and other resources to learn it. Stackoverflow has a similar question on learning C++, so I thought this would be a good place to ask this question.

Two things: 1. Open video lectures, if any, will be really helpful. 2. As I am trying to self study, problem oriented books (possibly with hints and solutions) will be very helpful.

    MIT's OpenCourseWare is very helpful for these sorts of things. – Clayton Oct 11 '13 at 19:58
  • Yes, I forgot to mention this. If someone can make this question as wiki, that would be really helpful. – rivu Oct 11 '13 at 19:59
  • I'm also really interested to hear if somebody has a coherent strategy. My own linear algebra experience was so fragmented, repeating the same material many (6) times at different depths, that I have a hard time imagining what a streamlined experience would look like. – Eric Stucky Oct 11 '13 at 20:01

You could try this link. It covers the basics and you could use it also for organizing your learning. I mean what to start with and what to learn next. http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-06-linear-algebra-spring-2010/video-lectures/
