Audiobooks or lectures to listen to at highschool-level

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the availability of audiobooks and lectures suitable for high school-level mathematics and physics. Adrian Banner's Princeton lecture series on Calculus I and II is highlighted as an excellent resource, available for free on YouTube. While audiobooks are generally deemed less effective due to the visual nature of these subjects, the discussion emphasizes the value of structured lectures that can be followed without visual aids. Additionally, a supplementary book by Adrian Banner, priced around $20 on Amazon, is recommended for further study.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of high school-level mathematics and physics concepts
  • Familiarity with single-variable calculus
  • Basic knowledge of online learning platforms like YouTube
  • Ability to access supplementary educational materials
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore Adrian Banner's Princeton lecture series on YouTube
  • Research additional online resources for high school mathematics and physics lectures
  • Investigate supplementary books on calculus available on Amazon
  • Consider platforms offering visual aids to complement audio learning
USEFUL FOR

High school students, educators, and anyone interested in enhancing their understanding of mathematics and physics through audio lectures and supplementary materials.

(Not a 100% this goes here but oh well)
I imagine there's not a lot of this, since visual presentation is pretty important in these subjects, but does anyone know any good lectures or audiobooks on highscool/Secondary mathematics or physics that one could listen too while taking a promenade?
Edit: Or, if not high school stuff, things a high school student could follow or would maybe have the prereqs for?

Adrian Banner's Princeton lecture series on Calc I and Calc II was especially good, free on youtube. I know this stretches into post-sec mathematics, but it walks through basically all of single-variable calculus in a very precise way. Also, there is a cheap supplementary book by Adrian ~$20 on amazon.
P.S. I don't think audiobooks would be a good idea, since as you said "visual presentation is pretty important", if you just listened to the audio, the professor will often refer to things he's written on the board and you will be awfully confused.
