I think you should really start in the other end.

Do they really need to download that data during the lesson they need it?
That begs for big problems in class, as any lagging on any machine vill m=
ake significant delay on the class session.  (Or the teacher have forgot =
uploading it or any problem with network, or other network/server load or=
 maintenance coincide, or whatever.  Just-in-time often is definitely not=
 htat, especially if you start not until you already needed it...

Why can=B4t they be given th alink to file to download until NEXT lesson,=
 and in current lesson use what they have downloaded from th elink viven =
the lesson before.  Then they can download during lesson, or any time els=
e.  Much less hassle not only for IT department.

And of course look at if they really need such large file.

Also I would not like to sit in a room with plenty of RF devices pumping,=
 plus all RFI from computers already.. There are different reports of hea=
lth effects on that, and until tha tis solved we shuld definitely not for=
ce pupils into theede maybe hazardous environment anyway...  (Says I sitt=
ing an elactronic lab...)  ;)
