I hesitate to recommend the following because:

(i)  I put it together
(ii) It's of dubious educational value - it's all rather smoke and mirrors
     but I think it does help to sell Zope as a "cool tool" (the 
understanding
     can come once the enthusiasm has been ignited).

I've road tested it on a "class" of 30 people, each with their own PC.
Over 75% had installed Zope from scratch and had a writeable Web-enabled
database application running inside an hour.
