I haven't seen it mentioned much here, but I've been browsing iTunes and noticed their efforts to promote iTunes U within the interface.
iTunes U is a special selection of podcasts released by colleges & universities that cover many topics including course lectures, guest speakers, debates, and tutorials. As you'll see, some of the feeds are set up as a collection of discussions while others have a very class-like format, even including PDFs of the syllabus and assignments.
I searched for "graphic design" and found a wealth of content. Here is quick list of some of the more interesting classes I found.
All the links will open in iTunes, which is avilable for Windows or Mac. You can
download it here. You do not need an iPod to listen/watch these files. They can be played on your computer and on most other portable media players.
