Hi All, I got this via the London SCC meetup mailing list, and wonder whether ability to remember code could be used for pre- and post-workshop assessment?
The 30 minute format used by Derek is clearly too onerous for the assessment, but perhaps showing smaller bits of code in a browser, removing them, and then asking participants to type what they recall into a textarea might still turn up useful data for estimating their pre-existing skill / experience?
