Are you using POV just to give them a better understanding of what's involved in
RT or as a serious graphics tool? I assume the former.

If so, I'd have thought sticking with fairly basic CSG would be the way to go
(unions, differences and intersections of primatives).

Using the SDL to do things like create multiple copies of objects and so on
would be a good intro to the programming side.

And, of course, a quick tour of Gilles Tran's site, just in case any of them are
in doubt as to whether POV can produce "serious" graphics....
