Don,
   I agree with your suggestion to try this, which could be the problem. The other problem Schoology presents is that (I believe) it sets by default a smallish limit on the maximum file size allowed for student uploads. The work-arounds I have used have been to either have smaller worlds for students to upload (no sound files, simpler models), or asking for the limit to be raised.
Just my $0.02,
Steve

An advantage to this is that you could also have them submit some form of documentation about their project that wold be included in the folder.
