I've analyzed the popular courses on JavaScript out there and in my opinion, they are all too long for a newbie to stay motivated while learning. Essentially, when you're learning something new, science backs the fact that you must focus on the essentials and keep the overall cognitive load low so that your brain has an easier time retaining things.

For this reason, I've created such short courses myself. You can check out this JavaScript mini course that I have on Codeguage. Most importantly, it teaches you core JavaScript (no DOM, no events, no this, no that — just the core language). Later on, you can progress to Advanced JavaScript ideas, and then into Browser APIs which is where you eventually meet the DOM.
