One On the link between homology and homotopy

inIn the last semester I learned homological algebra and higher category theory\homotopy theory/homotopy theory.

butBut I am kind of confused when I try to realy understatereally understand the link between the two subjectsubjects ( thisthis is really not my comfort comfort zone ...)

Therefore I try to write  (a kind of self exersice-exercise) a text on homological algebra and homotopy theory but realyreally introduce from $0$ the two subjetssubjects.

I would like to introduce the following concepts in homological algebra  :

  1. chain complex

1$\frac{1}{2}$.grothendieck Grothendieck group

  1. homotopy of a complex

  2. derived category

  3. t-structures

And also I would like to introduce the following concepts in homotopy theory  :

  1. Model categories

  2. Homotopy category of a model category

  3. Derivation in the setting of model categories

  4. Quasi categories-categories

4.5. simplicial object in a category and homotopy in this context

  1. Dold kan-Kan equivalence

Now the "hard" part start  :

howHow to organize this conceptthese concepts in a good way? forFor 1-3 (either in homology\homotopyhomology/homotopy) I think that I know how to do that but for 3-5 especially in homotopy I dontdon't have any idea ...

This gives rise to my questions  :

  1. howHow to give motivation infinite categorymotivate infinity categories, or with more generallitygenerally homotopy theory\highertheory/higher category theory but from a homological point of view. I read somewhere a maybe good idea  :

For an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$

 , the derived category $\mathcal{D(A)}$ is not defined by a universal property.

I read somewhere that in some sense higher category theory resolveresolves the problem,Okay. Okay but why  ? andAnd, do we need quasi categories, or would model categories will be sufficient for doing that?

  1. and ifIf someone have some idea to organize this text I open to any suggestion.

I will be grateful if someone could give me some clues for doing this self exercise  .
