Beginner's Guide to Propulsion
published by the NASA Glenn Research Center
This site from the NASA Glenn Research Center offers a brief introduction to propulsion with many links to explore related concepts in depth. Topics include Newton's laws, thrust, aerodynamics, thermodynamics, basic math concepts, propulsion systems, and more. Users can navigate the site through links to other pages of interest, but there are also links to guided tours and an index at the bottom of the portal page.
