From the outset introduce problems that are familiar and well understood by the students but which have sufficient complexity to demonstrate the added value of the software solution. Provide prebuilt components, as a problem-solving toolkit, which can, at a later stage, be ‘unwrapped' to reveal the detailed syntax of their implementation[1].
