Wouldn't it make pedagocially more sense to introduce languages that are more different (paradigm) from each other than those languages you listed?

- bovermyer 7y agoIn a single course? I don't think so. Choosing languages that are this similar will make it easier to make the transition between them. The intent is to teach foundational skills in different areas of web development, and not to teach everything about programming.
- hopia 7y agoIf it's a single course, then I'd say teaching more than one language is already too much. Javascript is necessary to learn as a webdev no matter how you look at it, while the other two are not. Javascript can do all the aspects required from a programming language in the web domain so focusing on that would make the most sense.
