Teaching children to program by JavaScript examples
- bokchoi 16y agoIt is interesting to compare the teaching technique to the recently posted Zed Shaw Python book. The examples "start at the end" and begin using objects and jQuery right away rather than building up from the nuts and bolts of numbers, functions, and syntax. Since it is JavaScript running in the browser, it is nicely interactive. It's not complete yet, but you can see other examples still to be added: http://davidbau.com/archives/2010/04/12/tutorial_maze_maker.html http://davidbau.com/archives/2010/04/12/tutorial_maze_maker.... http://davidbau.com/archives/2010/04/17/tutorial_cannon_game.html http://davidbau.com/archives/2010/04/17/tutorial_cannon_game...
