Last wednesday (october 9th) I delivered kind of a jump start lecture for learning JavaScript. The lecture took place in HIT.
You can can find my slides at http://www.slideshare.net/lifemichael/javascript-jump-start. I will be more than happy to get any feedback about this lecture. More info about my new coming professional courses can be found at http://tinyurl.com/lifemichaelhitcourses.
