A friend of mine told me about some free online courses from MITx. He took the Circuits course during the fall, and highly recommends it.

6.002x: Circuits and Electronics
8.02x: Electricity and Magnetism

I figured some forum members may be interested in taking Circuits and Physics classes online. There's no real degree or college credits; you get a certificate from MITx upon completion. But most importantly, if you really take interest in a course you'll gain a pretty good understanding of its material. There are weekly assignments, along with a midterm and final exam.

Wow, this looks like an impressive program, free courses online via MIT.

Best regards,

Here's another course on structures: 2.01x: Elements of Structures

2.01x is a first course on the mechanical behavior of deformable structural elements. It introduces principles of structural analysis in applications to essential load-bearing elements, such as bars in axial loading, axisymmetric shafts in torsion, and symmetric beams in bending. The course covers fundamental concepts of continuum mechanics, including internal forces, displacement fields, stresses, and strains. The students will learn to predict linear elastic structural behavior, and prevent failure, by relying on the notions of equilibrium, geometric compatibility, and constitutive material response.
