Hello Mr. Hinrichs,
I hope you are doing well today!
It's great to see your interest into the Blockchain solutions and that you want to share it with your students.
If I can give you my opinion, the best way to understand the Blockchain is to participate to a project or some activities related to Centralized and Decentralized Exchange, Peer-To-Peer Networks, App and Dapps (Application and Decentralized Applications) Using a Digital Wallet from your browser or Android device etc.
I would suggest you to make a "TestNet" or even with "Real Crypto" using an application like "
Metamask" (I am not doing any promotion of any kind but suggestion) and from there every student will have their own "Wallet", you must explain them how to recover their phrase code and the hole processus, this could be a great lab to do in your classroom. You can use the website "
Etherscan" for your reference with the "Blockchain" and see all transaction from your "TestNet" there or any transaction that occur between your student so they can understand how the Network is working.
You can go on
Gitcoin Quest and start to learn about the Blockchain, Web3 and many things related to Technology that could certainly help. Gitcoin modus operandi is all related to the Blockchain with some of the Best Software Engineer.
Mostly every project about Blockchain should have their Documentation available on their website.
I hope this will help you!
Best Regards!

What are the seminal titles I should recommend to my cybersecurity students on blockchain and distributed ledger?
What do you consider the Bible of Blockchain?
Thank you
