Yesterday was the first time I have explored the Highlights for High School part of MIT OCW. As a nerd who spends half my waking hours watching lecture videos and doing practice problems I love MIT's site, but I never looked at the high school part of it. I thought I would look and I was pleasantly surprised.
It has introductory stuff and stuff that would be seen in high school, but it also has some more difficult stuff for students who are curious about it. This difficult stuff also gives a good introduction to university level classes and can prepare students for university. There is an exam prep section in these subjects biology, calculus, chemistry, and physics. There is also other subjects with different resources.
When you go to a subject's home page you will find some good resources. There are links to MIT introduction courses that are on OCW, for students to explore. One of the most interesting resources is the high school courses developed by MIT students. I looked a couple of these courses and some of them look interesting, so I will likely be going through some of the material myself. There are lots of good resources for high school students on this site, and I wish I had a chance to explore them when I was in high school.
