Right now, The plusses on javascript are:

* Runs everywhere. It's the BASIC of this age * It's not that bad. * They can do stuff their friends can see

I'd rather do python, since it's that much cleaner, less curly braces and semicolons and better loops. But, the results aren't as public, and it's a harder environment to set up. And given that I have to work with the school's IT, I think I'm going to be lucky that we can load chrome on the system.

So, clarity for teaching, or ubiquity. Still deciding.
