I am a teacher at a continuation high school. We recently started a new class called digital music. It is basically a class where kids create songs using GarageBand. I have been looking to get more things for the class through grants and other things (considering budget is not tight, but non-existent). We are using a cart of 12 MacBooks that run Leopard. I was wondering what would be the best way for me as a teacher to monitor these computers. I have two different classes of 12 kids. So the computer gets used by more than one student. I was thinking of creating separate log in's so students can't mess with each others work and then using parental controls to keep them from wondering around on the internet while they should be working. The one thing I want to be able to do is give students the ability to change their password, but I want to be able to access their accounts without having to reset their passwords. Is their anyway to do that?

I also welcome any advise or suggestions for setting the computers up for the class.
