Khan Academy is a popular resource to study and review material on several subjects (not just math). I tend to allow students and parents to utilize this at their wishes, but will occasionally refer to it.
YouTube is another popular resource for students to 'learn on their own'. There is a wealth of knowledge out there - alas, some can be confusing as it is presented differently.
Wolfram Alpha is a very powerful tool that can present mathematical solutions for problems ranging from Integrated Math 1 to beyond HS Calculus. For those planning to study math in College, it is a precursor to Mathematica.
Big Ideas Math is the curriculum we use for the first 3 integrated math courses throughout MJUSD. There is a wealth of information available to students and parents on its' website. These include the student dynamic eBook, tutorial videos, and parent help handouts. Students are welcomed to mark up their eBook - highlight, tab, draw, etc.
