====== Interactivity > Decision Tree >  New Information Step ======

This is one of 4 types of step that can be used for a Decision Tree activity.  Two of these require the learner to interact, and their response determines the page they are taken to; one step summarises the decisions that a learner has taken along a pathway; one step presents new information.

The Information Step simply presents information to the learner - there is no branching from this step.

===== Example demo =====

In this demo, irrespective of your choice of answer on the first Step in this activity, the __second__ Step is an Information Step.
