I recently wrote a post indicating that much online content was interesting but is not “deep” enough to encourage the understanding of a topic. This is not to say there are not exceptions and you may be lucky enough to find a thorough analysis in an area of interest.
The MIT OCW (open courseware project) offers such resources and has recently released an iPad app (actually they describe it as an iPhone app) that offers access to some of these resources and offers a “social” experience in addition to the video content (hackeducation review). I am not personally that interested in the social component, but the content is useful IF I locate something of interest – I tend to focus on certain things. I found a course on “Photography as inquiry” that I have been viewing. You may find something related to your interests.
Search the app store for MIT OpenCourseWare.
