I teach Photoshop across the internet. When a student makes a selection the constant changing created by the marching ants uses so much bandwidth my screen never refreshes. So, I cannot see what the student is doing.

Both the student and I need to see the selected area, so is there a way to freeze the marching ants so we can see the selection without the constant changing?

Make the selection a Quickmask (hit Q). Then you can see it much more easily.
