Books!! LOL

I read books on programming all the time and it really helps.

Also, putting your knowledge to a practice by making something like a game on your own can be great practice.

There's some really great stuff at Coursera.

And if you're willing to give up the peer-reviewed exercises and exams, you can audit the courses for free.

But I really enjoy the Treehouse method of video-challenge-video-quiz-repeat. I find it very helpful to retaining what I'm learning, and I miss it in the Coursera programs, whether fully enrolled or not.

I know many recommend freecodecamp as well as a good compliment to treehouse. Especially if you aren't doing a tech degree.

I tried code camp the other day. I agree it's pretty good, but I felt it jumped into the code pretty quick. Would be hard for a beginner. It tells you the 'how' but not exactly the why.

Great question. Probably google more than anything. No particular site to be honest, just search and find.

I bookmark a lot of sites. Youtube a bit as well.
