What about taking a specific problem, and solving it using different 
languages (2 - 3)? This would give a nice vision to the audience about the 
differences of approaches. 

Better yet, in the end a multi-language solution could be presented, using 
the best of each language. 

Obviously, the problem to be solved must be carefully chosen so to display 
many interesting points. 

I would be interested in a lecture like this.
