MIT OpenCourseWare: Introduction to Solid State Chemistry

Washington University and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute have created an online tutorial to help prepare students for college-level chemistry courses. http://www.chemistry.wustl.edu/~coursedev/Online%20tutorials/chemtutorials.htm

I think the online course movement is wonderful. Here, for example, is MIT’s offering on the basic principles behind chemical science. Watch the video lectures, work along with the lecture notes (filling in the deliberately-left blanks), read the readings, and test yourself on the exams.
