For math and writing, we still have in-class exams as an LLM-free evaluation tool. I wish there was some way to do the same for programming. Imagine a classroom full of machines with no internet connection, just a compiler and some offline HTML/PDF documentation of languages and libraries.

This is perfectly possible. +-12 years ago I took a course on concepts of programming languages. The exam consisted out of programming exercises in a classroom without internet access. Grading was based on the number of (hidden) unit tests that succeeded. https://eelcovisser.org/blog/teaching/2014/02/05/programming-education-in-the-browser-with-weblab/ https://eelcovisser.org/blog/teaching/2014/02/05/programming...
