Another  albeit non-free  option is to install VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktop on the Mac and run Windows with Visual Studio in a VM   This works really pretty well   The downsides are    it ll cost money for the virtual machine software and Windows  the school may have some academic licensing that may help here  the Mac needs to be an x86 Mac with a fair bit of memory   The upside is that you and the student don t need to hassle with differences in the IDE that may not be accounted for in your instruction materials

It s not really an IDE per se  but I really like TextMate  and with the C   bundle that ships with it  it can do a lot of the things you d find in an IDE  without all the bloat
