Khan Academy
The [|Khan Academy] is arguably the most useful Mathematics resource on the web. Home to literally //thousands// of videos and other tools, Khan Academy offers an incredible amount of free material. Besides the wealth of short (10 minute) videos, the site also has various quizzes and interactive tools for studying every branch of math, from basic arithmetic to linear algebra. N ot only is this a valuable resource for teachers to prepare lessons, but students can go on learning on their own time, and can find helpful knowledge for completing difficult assignments.

An example of one video is shown in the image below. Each video is narrated and illustrated by a professional educator, so they all contain plenty of useful information.

[|Amazing Seattle Fractals]
One of my personal favorite topics in math has always been fractal geometry. Fractals illustrate the beauty behind mathematics, and can hopefully allow your students to see it too. This site features a number of resources regarding fractals, including examples, lessons, and programs to generate your own fractals. Most of the programs listed are free, so taking advantage of these for a class is simple.

While fractals are not a required part of high school curriculum, they are a very interesting part of mathematics that may help students learn to like math.
