List of Educational Websites | Post Index
Based on the following image, I made a series of 13 posts that updated and linked to each of the relevant categories of educational websites. I did this so that the links were fresh for those sites that were still up. In addition, I thought an index of all 13 posts might be helpful.
Index
- Part One: Courses
- Part Two: Videos
- Part Three: Music
- Part Four: Random Knowledge
- Part Five: Lifehacks
- Part Six: Cooking
- Part Seven: Language Learning
- Part Eight: Books
- Part Nine: Programming
- Part Ten: DIY's / How To's
- Part Eleven: Documentaries
- Part Twelve: Other
- Part Thirteen: Math
What other resources exist that should be added to this list? Post them in the comments below.

List of Educational Websites | Part Thirteen
We've made it to the thirteenth AND LAST part of the series of the Ultimate List of Educational Websites. The last category is for...
Math
- Wolfram|Alpha: Computational Intelligence - This is themed as the math search engine. It allows you to enter any math equation and compute expert-level answers using breakthrough algorithms and artificial intelligence.
- Project Euler is a series of challenging mathematical/computer programming problems that will require more than just mathematical insights to solve. The problems range in difficulty and expose new concepts as you go.
mathrun.net- appears down or unregistered.
And now we've reached the end! This has been a fun little project to share a great list of various educational websites that I'm hopeful will be useful for students and teachers.

Sumo - Creative Tools for Curious Minds
I posted about Sumo Paint a while ago (2011), but the same company has expanded their applications in the intervening time and can now be found at Sumo - Creative Tools for Curious Minds. In addition to the expanding featues of their Paint program, they also now have Tunes, 3D, Code, Photo, Audio, Video and Pixel tools. They have a student discount of only $19 per year versus the regular price of $9 per month. Unleash your creativity.
