Video series:  Kahn Academy on the Gates Notes
By The Khan Academy, YouTube.com

Bill Gates has endorsed the Khan Academy calling it "unbelievable" and  saying "I've been using it with my kids."
So what is the Khan Academy?  
It is a not-for-profit educational organization created by Salman Khan with the mission of providing "high quality education to anyone, anywhere."  
The Academy supplies a free online collection of 1700+ (and growing) videos on YouTube covering everything from basic arithmetic to advanced calculus, chemistry and biology, economics, finance, banking,  along with a series of exercises that allow students to practice and assess their knowledge at their own pace.
Each video runs for approximately ten minutes.  They can be found by visiting the link above.
