You can find homework assignments quite easily. Shell programs that *have* to be written using only sed, and not awk or perl, programs that are supposed to touch 10 files named 1 to 10 and then carry out operations on those files are some examples.

If you want to learn about unix, this is a good place to start. Go through the tutorials from the FAQs, install Linux/BSD/Solaris at home and start scripting, then you could move on to C (though I learned it the other way round).
