Project based learning is an effective pedagogical tool for teachingcomputer science, and the end product or goal is often a solution to a particular coding problem or asoftware application that performs a given task. However, students must be provided with some degree offoundational knowledge in order for this approach to be utilized. The content and extent of thisknowledge is dependent on the focus and difficulty of the project, and can be particularly difficult toestablish when working with students without prior programming experience. Furthermore, whenteaching high-level general programming languages, the expansive suite of built-in tools coupled withadditional third-party packages or libraries present a
