Geoffrey Challen, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, plans to offer a new course this fall in which he will teach students to develop software “without writing, reading, debugging, or viewing a single line of code,” he told me.

Is that meant to say reviewing? Either way, I can't see how this would lead to good results, even with a comprehensive test suite. Security? Scalability? Maintainability?
