If I was going to teach a backend web framework (like Django, Rails, etc) my (unequally sized) lessons would be:

1. The request-response process
2. HTML
3. Basic CSS
4. Basic client side JavaScript (optional)
5. The backend language (Python, Ruby, etc)
6. The framework itself

The number of people learning Django (or whatever) and having zero understanding of HTML is amazing.
