Samuel Baker's Economics Interactive Lectures. These lectures are about basic economic concepts, such as supply and demand and elasticity, but considering that Prof. Baker's course is in a health administration program, the examples are all health care examples, which should not make one wary about their general applicability. The lectures are also interactive, which means you are tested constantly with questions that you respond to while going through the lectures.
