I usually start out with something web-oriented (which means
urllib). how about adding a "get" method to strings? or an "L"
prefix character that causes Python to wrap it up in a simple
URL container:
print url"http://www.python.org".read()

but in practice, if you really want people to get interested,
make sure you have a domain-specific library installed on the
training machines. why care about string fiddling when your
second python program (after print "hello world") can be:
import noaa
im = noaa.open("noaa16_20020620_1021")
im.rectify("euro")
im.show()
