Jul 16, 2010 at 10:42 comment added Dedalus I'll try your notes Keith. I do however know about modules, so I think it'll be alright.
Jul 14, 2010 at 23:32 comment added KConrad Gonçalo, there are quite a few notes posted on that page, so it may be better to give links directly to the files: math.uconn.edu/~kconrad/blurbs/linmultialg/tensorprod.pdf and math.uconn.edu/~kconrad/blurbs/linmultialg/tensorprod2.pdf. Concerning Keenan's comment, I suppose if the OP replaces "ring" with "field", "module" with "vector space", and ignores all examples that don't make sense with vector spaces (e.g., Q/Z), then my notes may make sense. But that could be asking too much. If Dedalus tries that experiment I'd be curious to know if it works.
Jul 14, 2010 at 15:50 comment added Keenan Kidwell The only reason I would say that Kieth Conrad's exposition of tensor products might not be appropriate is because the reader seems to be interested in vector spaces and, as a second year undergraduate, may not know anything about modules yet.

Jul 14, 2010 at 13:17 comment added Gonçalo Marques You should check Keith Conrad's handouts on the tensor product too. They are really good. math.uconn.edu/~kconrad/blurbs
