Back from summer break? Knock the rust off with some practice lectures!!
The Khan Academy website, www.khanacademy.org, is a great place to find short practice lectures on just about any subject! There are over 1600 videos, all recorded by one person (Salman Khan), in practically every subject area of math, science, history, finance, economics, etc.
Most of Khan’s lectures are reasonably paced. If you’re a brand new transcriber, remember to take caution when practicing with any recorded media: don’t let yourself slip into using fragments, run-on sentences, or other bad habits just to keep up. You might want to download a trial version of Enounce’s MySpeed software, which allows you to slow down or speed up the playback of any flash-based videos online, including YouTube!
