Hello, IMHO most code can be refactored. Forme the point is how you want to teach it and what you want to teach exactly. For instance, if you are following a tdd approach, then the project you choose, should better come with that in mind. If you are not considering tests, for whatever reason, I guess any simple enough project would be good. Of course, it depends on the details of what you want to teach. BTW, at work I have been told to organize a course about testing and good programming practices with Python. I was thinking in developing an example by myself...
