I am currently taking a computer science II class in high school, in which we use java, and my teacher does not really know how to go about teaching and when she tries to help usually makes things worse. Does anyone know of any sites to help teach/reinforce the java language?

In addition we also use a site called Javabats and i was wondering if there were any better sites similar to it or any feedback on how useful javabats is would be nice.

If you have very little experience I would suggest getting a book over random web tutorials. I personally don't have a book in mind for java. But I am sure someone here will.

devshed is a good site, but not for starting out.
