Want to learn CS, Mathematics, or Physics?

I just got a link from linkedin about how to study the sciences online from a non-profit organization.

I always love to learn specific things and generally do not like formal education in a class room. I can go over things I don't get many times if I have a website or book to learn from instead. So I got really excited when I got this link from linkein:
www.khanacademy.org/

I know a lot of people here at GG have been looking for CS resources to complement their learning of the engines. If you are interested in the topic this may be the resource you need to learn the sciences at your own pace.

Another invaluable resource for myself is Stack Overflow. (My alt at Stack Overflow is Demolishun.)

Perhaps we should have a thread available to the public that is stickied for different resources to learn topics related to game development. I am sure the artists, designers, programmers, documentation experts, etc here at GG have a wealth of links that would help people here to learn the trade.

Both are great. If you like stackoverflow then you should check out the blogs of the founders.

@kcpdad,
I don't just like stackoverflow I am dependent upon the insight other coders have there. They helped me figure out everything from PHP issues to doing callbacks in Python to C++ interfaces. That is a resource that would really hamper my productivity if I lost access to.

I will definitely check out those links.

Im a member of Khanacademy, im there learning math, I think its one of the best site out there. Sure beats buying all those books I used too. The practice section is amazing, I highly recommend it.
