Obviously, there are different needs/perspectives for professional developers and students. In addition to suggested solutions, maybe it could be handy to have EducationalMode plugin which will provide all the settings suitable for teaching out of the box. Although it is possible to do it manually, things like these break learning/teaching flow, especially when you have to explain it multiple times to several students that were not listening because they were solving some other small issue, and when you have to set up this on 20 computers in 5 classrooms etc.
