New Javascript Curriculum: Resources for 4/4/2015

Posted on March 31, 2015March 31, 2015 by Jonathan Ng

I will be rebooting the Javascript curriculum this week, and will be teaching all about variables.

Here are some resources for the kids if they want to review them.

  • Khan Academy’s variable review here: https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/programming/variables/a/review-variables
  • Code Academy’s Introduction to Javascript lesson: http://www.codecademy.com/courses/getting-started-v2/0/1
  • Crunchzilla’s Code Monster lesson variables (section 3): http://www.crunchzilla.com/code-monster

As for the rest of the curriculum, a rough outline of the full lesson plan.  A topic may take more than a week to cover.

  1. Variables
  2. A bit of drawing in HTML5 Canvas
  3. Basic data structures: Arrays and Objects
  4. Conditional statements: if/then/else
  5. Loops: for loops and while loops
  6. Functions: Doing more
  7. Putting it all together

I reserve the right to put in a few more things, but these are the topics I intend to cover at least.
