BEFORE taking the course students should read following important notes about learning process in the university (and some more practical comments by Prof. U. Vishne relevant for process in Bar-Ilan, and a nice piece from  Ynet  (pdf)).

Supplement materials:

Link to a site of a similar course Linear Algebra 1 (by Prof. R. Adin). Note: the site's Hebrew text is corrupted, but on the right there is a menu where you can view excellent lecture notes. 

For Linear Algebra 2:  Notes by Ed Nelson on the proof of Jordan normal form (and another site on related issues).

Bibliography:

Recommendations for more advanced text books (with their library codes):

S. Lang, Linear algebra, 15-01LAN -- a very clear exposition;

G. Mostow et all,  Fundamental linear algebra, 15-01MOS;

Hoffman&Kunze, Linear algebra, 15-01HOF - the classic;

Shilov, Linear algebra, 15-01SHI (exists in Russian too);

Halmos, Finite-dimensional vector spaces, 15-02HAL - essentially a collection of problems; highly recommended!

Roman, Advanced linear algebra, 15-02ROM - an advanced book for the second reading;

In Hebrew:  ש. עמיצור, אלגברה א. ,15-01עמיאל   -- quite algebraic, but highly recommended.
