Hello Sean,

I can share some links for open courseware where you can listen to
video lectures online, but I am not sure how best to deal with
interpreting mathematical equasions and formulas on the computer. As
far as actual free resources for learning, I would start by looking up
the open courses offered at Yale, MIT, and the University of
California, just to name a few. Their websites are accessible with
screen readers, and you can download videos of the lectures that they
offer free of charge. You can also go to www.learners.tv, which is
another resource for listening to and downloading video lectures in an
organized fashion. Please let me know if any of these resources assist
you, as well as what I can further do to help.

Joe
