Schoology by default sets the imported Savvas items as published 

The issue

When you select Savvas content to import into your Schoology course using the Savvas Realize Discover tool, Schoology by default sets the imported Savvas items as published if the folder you place it in is published. This can be an issue if you are adding content to your course while students are using your Schoology course as they will be able to see and possible access the assignments before you are able to hide them from students.

What you can do

If you add content to a unpublished folder, the items will be added by default as unpublished. We recommend that if you are adding content, use a unpublished folder.
