Many Article parameters, such as Show Title, Show Author, and so on, can be set form the backend of the Hub. This can be done by logging in to the backend, navigating to the Article Manager: Articles page (Content-> Article Manager), and then selecting the article you would like to adjust the parameter for. By clicking the box beside the title of the article, and then clicking the Edit button to open up the article for editing.

Typically, parameters at the individual article and menu item levels can be set to a specific value or to a value of Use Global. If the individual article's parameter is set, then that value controls the setting. If this is set to Use Global then the menu item parameter is checked. 

If you wish to view and check any prerequisites that have been set as an instructor you have to enroll in the course as a student. Currently the instructor’s view of the course outline and the outline students see are not the same. An instructor or a manager of a course will be able to view all of the content and see that it is published or unpublished. For students, the outline they view depends on the prerequisites for the parts of the course and what is available to them during the course.

The best way for an administrator of a course to view what a student can see, would be to create a testing account and enroll as a student in the course.
