Since you aren't trying to teach the language, but rather provoke some
interest in Python, it may be a good idea to just show a few specific
libraries and problem domains in which Python can excel.
Here are some topics that might suffice:
1) Overview of open source projects that use Python
2) About GUI libraries available for Python
3) Zope
4) ReportLAB (a Python library for PDF generation)
5) Jython
