While I get it that trying to teach someone to insert a graphic inside a one-cell floating table is a bit much, you don't have to teach anything of the sort.
1) You can have a template that contains the table and graphic.
2) You can create an AutoText entry that has a heading, graphic, and placeholder for following text, and save that in your template.
3) You could attach a keyboard shortcut, or a QAT icon to the AutoText entry and show your students to use that to insert a new point. The keyboard shortcut and/or QAT icon should also be saved in the template.
It is a bit of work for you, but once done, it would be a snap for your students. It would be easier than learning about "keep with next" and "keep lines together" formatting.
