First off, thanks for being my first comment!

Anyways, this project is a website meant for creating shareable skill trees for FREE. My larger goal is to make education more student-centered. I feel like a step in the right direction is to gamify school through something like a cool skill tree. At some point, I want to be able to create a default theme like what I have now, as well as a Skyrim Theme like the following:

skyrim tree

Incentives:

  • Students get to
    • review their teacher's notes for lessons
    • look at the bigger picture. They may feel less overwhelmed and feel like they have some direction in their education.
    • get to keep track of what they feel like they know and what they feel like they don't know (Using colors)
  • Teachers get
    • Optional Quantitative Feedback from students about how well they feel like they understand a lesson
    • Optional Verbal Feedback from students about how they're feeling about the topic or just things in general

This project will never be another method for evaluating students.
