I just found something that looks pretty promising for Anthropology.
ANTH 1010: Social/Cultural Anthropology
Using stuff like this in conjunction with Instantcert and Wiki seems like a pretty good combo. Let me know if you find anything else good!

Yes! But don't pay for them- Everything from MIT is on youtube- just search Open Courseware and you should find a zillion of them for FREE with video. (or go in through MIT open courseware page).
Here is what happened to me. When I first started, I bought an audio book for my ipod on sociology and psychology- a few actually, but they are not cheap. Run you around $10-$20 each and I found the lack of visual to be a huge learning barrier for me that I hadn't expected?!? I couldn't skim back or re-read a sentence...or go back a few sentences to pull it all together. Another funny thing, is that I couldn't spell some words- especially names after only hearing them, so I was not familiar with them when seeing them in written form. It was kinda weird actually.
