I'm in tenth grade.
I've pretty much neglected my scientific education so far but have read a few books about physics and think that physics is really interesting. However, I don't know anything about elements or atoms other than that they exist, so I'm taking chemistry first.
I'm using a program called CyberEd right now, normally it's a supplemental-type program used in schools but I got my paws on it. Thing is, I'm not learning anything.
It's a 35-50 minute presentation, then you do some dragging and dropping, then you take a test. The presentation isn't working though- I need something printed to focus on or my attention wanders.
Ideally I'd like a workbook with plenty of illustrations, but high school is pretty bleak on the workbook front. I just want to have a basic understanding of chemistry so I can go on to physics, but I'm not sure how to get it.
I need something cheap, too, and I don't learn anything from textbooks: the presentation is too boring.
