I think this is a very good start.

I believe it is important to add some slides which point out that it
is very helpful to have an information model which explains how things
are related before writing MIB modules. Perhaps it helps to show some
examples to illustrate the point.

A simple to understand example perhaps is the Printer-MIB (RFC 3805)
since everybody knows what a printer is. Figure 2 in RFC 3805 defines
a conceptual block diagram for a printer and the MIB tables are
organized according to this block diagram.
