Well for really simple skills you could have one-word answers, or go'i, na
go'i etc . That would be easy to automate.

If you're into the whole AI thing, we could have a program with a turtle,
or a set of blocks. 

Your task is to construct a tower of the blocks by issuing commands in
lojban. Similarly draw a shape with the turtle.

Just ideas.
