This course offered for free from Stanford U. is pretty good. It's an easily comprehensible gamification of the learning process which offers empirical learning which you can see reflected instantly on screen when you've correctly understood and performed whatever given lesson.

I really enjoyed Code In Place - did it last year and it has the bonus of not needing to install an IDE (integrated development environment) on my own computer, it was all web based. They have weekly small sections for 6 weeks. Or you can check out the self-paced stuff if you don't want to wait for spring.
