A super nerd word for "the guy taking all the damage in a mmorpg game" Think total dumbfuck that has no spell casting ability and can swing a giant axe so he moronically runs in front of everyone like a big tank.
Nerdwithnorealworldskills20008 is tanking! Hey put your hex spells on that him so we can mow him down with our +98 damage wind avenger blade spells! Pass the cheese wizz and graham crackers Bill!

In a classroom/graded setting, one relies on the current postitive status of their grade, using it as a buffer in hopes to get to the end of the grading period doing little or no work with mild to no consequence.
Similar to how a tank in an MMO can rely on buffs to stay alive in a mob, a mob being in this case either a class or a giant-ass homework load.

Guy 2: Don't worry that bastard is on lock down.
Guy 3: God Damnit!!
Guy 1&2: TANK!!!
