You'll need an easy to access central file server, with an account set
up for each student. 

If you can create a custom live CD you can auto-connect to the read-only
data server and prompt the student for id/pass when they click on a 
"my data" icon [calling `smbmount`] on the desktop. 

simple samba server + smbfs? pmount?
