Hi Stefan, I did some work with students back when I was with cloudmade. There are a few details here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Education
I can pass along the power points I made if you like (although they are about a year out of date now). Just let me know. If anyone else wants them, I can also try and get them up on the wiki, or am happy for someone else to host them.
