The Decision Tree allows the creation of interactive flow charts representing decision pathways so that any branching decision process can be modelled. Students can interact with it and receive feedback on correct or incorrect pathways. The tool can incorporate audio, video and images at each decision node to enhance the learner's experience.

An example Decision Tree has been developed by the Paediatrics Department which simulates a real-life clinical scenario in which the learner acts as a health care professional obtaining a history and physical examination and making diagnostic and therapeutic decisions: http://flexiblelearning.auckland.ac.nz/evpaeds_example/1_5.html

TIP: Decision trees require careful planning. We advise you to create the branching pathways on paper first, or seek assistance from the elearning staff at CLeaR: email coursebuilder@auckland.ac.nz
