You might get some extra inspiration here, if you haven't looked already:

Is moodle already on the main cd?

Not my thing personally, but some might be interested in gnomesword.

One minor comment.  I don't have any particular issue with the second cd
but I think it important not to overload edubuntu's default install with
applications -- in particular the existing philosophy of choosing one
application per task is a good one in my opinion.  Having two independent
programs for a given task can cause confusion among groups of users.
