Can anyone recommend a good basic electronics course? It could be a full year or just a couple month study. My 13 year old is interested. I came across this electronics. Has anyone ever used it or any of his other courses?

Thanks!

My husband and son just got a snap-circuit kit like that from Hobby Lobby, and have been having a blast with it. I think it's a great way to learn the basics. The kit they got has something like 100 different circuits to make, then they got another kit with different elements, plus there is some website where you can buy individual elements, design circuits online, and see circuits that others have designed. I'll have to ask him what the website is. Anyway, can't comment on the course, but the kit has been a big hit here!

My ds14 likes electronics as well. I can recommend this product that we bought at radio shack. For your sons age it will allow more advanced projects than the snap circuits.
