It's incredibly helpful to learn by example, in my opinion. My university course taught using Xv6 as well, and the exams often included a problem where you were asked to modify a portion of the code to change behavior in a particular way (we were also asked to have the entire code printed out for reference during the exam). Probably one of my favorite courses.
