Many view JavaScript as merely a scripting language to support Web pages. However, when JavaScript is used more like a traditional language (Web page gimmicks aside), the Web can be used as a viable programming platform upon which to teach programming fundamentals. We describe a Net-Centric curricular revision at Lake Forest College that uses the Web as the programming environment in CS1. We discuss the relationship of the new CS1 to the existing CS0 JavaScript course, and the ramifications that using the Web as the programming platform in CS1 has on other aspects of the curriculum. In particular, our early focus on Web programming facilitates expanded coverage in upper-level courses where the Internet is a factor.
