Student Jason Lee Roy Brower Mentor Pete Savage
Abstract PyStart will give teachers a way to work with programming students. And best of all, the students programs can be graded almost automatically will very little review from the teacher. PyStart will review code for the proper entries in the code and for the proper output. It will be created for beginners of programming. The goal of PyStart is to teach the basics of all programming skills. For example, loops and variable types.

Definitely worth taking a gander at Hackety Hack, a learning tool based in Ruby. http://hacketyhack.net/ Kevin On 5/19/07, Nicolas Pettiaux <nicolas.pettiaux@ael.be> wrote:

I talked to Jason a while back on IM - he implied that PyStart would be a very similar to HacketyHack, but with the addition of some automatic grading. He said he wanted PyStart to embed Gecko (as HacketyHack does) and be fully client-based (as Hackety is). he also seemed open to the idea of some kind of cooperation between Crunchy and PyStart - but he hasn't got back to me since.
