Building Big:  Interactive Labs - http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/buildingbig/lab/index.html 

In these interactive workshops, visitors develop a "hands-on" understanding of the basic principles that underlie all built structures. Through creative animations, these interactive simulations allow users to play with shapes, materials, forces, and loads to see how they affect large-scale structures.

Interactive Physics Modules - http://ippex.pppl.gov/interactive/

Interactive lessons on Matter, Electricity, Magnetism, Energy and Fusion.

Multimedia Activities - http://www.explorescience.com/activities/index.cfm 

Explore basic concepts such as vector addition, histogram construction. Interactive activities that create real-time correlations between scientific theories and applications that help students visualize, experiment, and interact with many of the major concepts in science: velocity, acceleration, inertia, light, sound, electricity, magnetism Bending light, color addition and subtraction, planetary systems, gravity, ultrasound, vision, reflexes, etc.
