Abstract
The paper proposes a free asynchronous course in JavaScript for adult novices looking to change careers and enter the field of computer programming or other technologic areas. The course is based on current andragogical best practices, with scaffolded learning and just-in-time instruction that allows learners to work on a personally meaningful project. The authors compare the described course with existing resources for learning JavaScript and highlight the unique aspects of their proposal. The course aims to address the constraints faced by adult learners, such as time and financial limitations, and provide a more effective alternative to existing resources.
