At CMSU they use Knoppix in their Linux class.  Since they can't provide a
PC for everyone there, they just use a Knoppix disc at home.  The
introductory class uses it to familiarize students with the command line
and basic shell scripting.  Later on in the semester, they learn to
install Mandrake.
