this is correct - we will need this in WISE 3.  And need to be able to
author it as well.

In general, step dependencies must  be developed - so what they see in Step
6 (e.g., which discussion topic) depends on what they did in step 5 (e.g.,
what state they left their model in).

Steps could also depend on assessment choices or selected preferences from a
previous step.

We will need much more flexible discussion groups.  IN WISE 2, we never
managed to get anything other than whole class discussions, even though the
research literature (some of it from our own group, like Sherry Hsi) said
the optimal discussion group size is 8 to 10 people.  We always had trouble
getting an algorithm that put 32 people, into groups.
