Hello Eelke, all,

on OSGeo side there is a central repository for educational material
called ELOGeo:

http://elogeo.nottingham.ac.uk/xmlui

and also the older, richer OSGeo catalog of educational material:

http://www.osgeo.org/educational_content

that led me to a QGIS+GRASS+R course from University Davis that can be
close to what you are looking for: http://www.osgeo.org/node/886

I suggest to everyone who wants to share tutorials and course materials
to add the links to these two repositories. More information on OSGeo
educational activities is available here:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Education_and_Curriculum_Committee

Eelke, all the best for your course!
Anne
