    Write a script to grab all files from a nominated directory under every
    home direcory. For example - have each student save their work
    in /home/<user>/coursework - and then either have an automatic (cron?)
    or manual script to copy or create links in a collected area.

    It would, most definitely.

    I've never set it up personally, but I would set it up to work as
    follows: each group has a /home directory (so there
    is /home/staff /home/group1 etc...) and each student has a personal
    directory under that - a student in group1 is in /home/group1/student1
    etc. Then each subdirectory of /home is exported so people can
    maximally see (but not alter) their classmates' directories. I would
    also use autofs - but that's a whole other story...
