Parent Project: Working Safely with Sharps
Teaser Description:

Knowing how to work safely with sharps is everyone's responsibility. In this module, you will learn how to prevent and minimize sharps injury to yourself and others, how to safely dispose of sharps, and how to document and report sharps injuries.

Teaser Description:
Dear MAT188 students,
 

I’ve taught MAT188 many times. The EdTech office generously video-captured many of my lectures to be shared with the MAT188 students.  Although the course format has changed (from 13 weeks to 12, to a different book, etc.), I’m happy to share lecture videos from 2016 and 2017 with you in case they’re of any use.

We were using a different book in those years and so while I’ve tried to put the videos into a good order for you, some of the videos are Frankenvideos --- bits of lectures from different lectures edited together. I’ve also referenced the lectures as closely as I could to the various sections of the textbook “Linear Algebra with Applications” (version 2021, revision A) by W. Keith Nicholson. This book is an open textbook, provided by Lyryx.

The auto-subtitle feature on youtube works surprisingly well, if you need subtitles. It’s not perfect but it’s pretty good if you need a little help parsing what I say in the video. I misspeak on occasion and when this happened in class (and hence in the videos) I tried to point this out using italics in the comments below so that it’s clear that I misspoke. If you find what you believe to be unidentified mistakes, please email me and let me know.

Note: I didn’t have a way of indicating vectors using an arrow over a letter and so in the video descriptions, vectors are written in italics. Also, I sometimes used Matlab notation to represent specific vectors and matrices and I used notation like "^2", "^T", and “^{-1}” to indicate superscripts. I hope things are relatively clear from the context.

I love linear algebra and I hope you discover its beauty as well!

 
Sincerely,

Working Safely with Sharps is an openly accessible, scenario-based training module. Completed in February 2024, this project was a collaboration between Environment Health and Safety (EHS), FASE Health and Safety, and the Education Technology Office (ETO). Our goal was to transform an existing one-hour training presentation into an interactive digital learning experience.
