====== Defining Vectors ======

===== The Prompt =====

**"Write down something you know about vectors."**

===== Context =====

This [[strategy:smallwhiteboard:|SWBQ]] is intended to prepare students for the more abstract treatment of vectors in linear algebra contexts. 

===== Wrap Up =====
Student responses typically include the dot and cross products, but more advanced students may bring up more advanced language (such as inner products) or more advanced concepts entirely (such as orthogonality relations or vector spaces).
