IMPORTANT NOTE: As it was suggested by Mr. Angel Vera: “The best place for the students to post question and get answers to it will be the eclipse newsgroup". There is a long list of newsgroups that you can benefit from depending on the question. As you are going to be working with Webtools, you would probably want to stay within the Eclipse Web Tools Platform Project. This is an open community of adopters and developers working with the Webtools project.
