That is why I developed the webstick so they can trying out the happiness of self-hosting (without the needs to know how to use Linux and spending too much money on an ARM SBC like the Raspberry Pi) and let their students figure out how web server and networking works.
I have developed and open source a web system for the webstick in which when used together with a 512MB (or larger) SD card, it can act as a poor man NAS that support a lot of features that you would typically only find on NAS like
