A very important and effective technique in teaching others (regardless of the subject) is to never write or display something that's wrong, because it's often the only thing a student will remember. This is obvious when it comes to language, but it applies to pretty much anything.

Is that better or worse than not teaching anything because your student couldn't pick out the 10 lines of actual functionality among the 100 lines of paranoiaplate in each example?
