Any good self-teaching resources?

[gdbb]

Hello,

I'm interested in self-teaching over the summer in order to gain an advantage in the courses I will take next year. The subjects in question are:

- Calculus 3 (multivariable)
- Differential Equations
- Linear Algebra
- Thermodynamics
- Strength of Materials

I know that MIT has great online lectures, which I've been watching, but I would like something that has example problems I can do on my own. I need a way to demonstrate what I've been learning, and just mulling over the concepts won't do it for me.

Thanks in advance.

Khan Academy has videos on calc III, diff EQ's, and linear algebra.

Try the Open Courseware from MIT it is very good.

I must not be understanding your question. If you know about MIT OCW, then you must know that they have courses in all of those subjects, and many of them include solved homework assignments, quizzes, and exams. That's how MIT students "demonstrate what they've been learning," so why wouldn't it work for you?

I only knew about the lectures on YouTube -- I had no idea they had all of these other course materials. Thanks!

OP, the good people over at 4chan have assembled a collection of links to self-learning materials that might be of help https://sites.google.com/site/scienceandmathguide
