Hmm... Now How in the World Could We Test That?

If you are teaching architects in an undergraduate program, you probably can't test them by having them design a real building. Likewise, a professor of economics can't get a student to go run the Fed for a week, or advise a major investment bank. Your civil engineering students may not get to erect an actual bridge as their final.

But I am pretty sure most places is with a computer science department have computers, and programming languages installed on those computers, so what is the puzzle here? You want to see if your student understands bubble sorts? Have her write a bubble sort!
