It depends entirely on the ability level of the students. Most of the 
time a piece of plastic or cardboard, held on with blutak or sellotape, 
seems to serve to keep little fingers off the button. Ths problem is 
that buttons tend to be located on the front panel and anything 
mechanical would involve modifying the case in some way. OK, until you 
want to make a warranty claim!
