# Yet to Make (45/60)

|
||||
There's been a lot of great interest in translating the trees into different languages. To save re-edits, a skill tree must progress through two rounds of expert peer review before translation. You can contribute to this repository by reviewing skill trees as an expert peer reviewer, contributing ideas, submitting completed skill trees or contributing language translations after peer review. See below for more info on how to submit a peer review.

Got a suggestion for a new skill tree, or feedback on an existing tree? Use the [suggestion box form](https://forms.office.com/r/0LdRzGZ2pK). None of the info in these was compiled by AI, but rather through working with experts. These trees are currently not final and I'm actively seeking feedback and peer review to polish and refine the content.
|
||||
Interested in helping put one of these together? Or even something that's not on the list? Send through your draft and I can put it in the template, or we can do a brainstorm hour to fill it in. If you're an expert and help me put something together a skill tree for the repository, or can assist in translating the sheets into different languages I'd love to hear from you. Let me know if you're interested, email: steph@makerqueen.com.au

# How to Make Your Own
|
||||
Got a suggestion for a new skill tree, or feedback on an existing tree? Use the [suggestion box form](https://forms.office.com/r/0LdRzGZ2pK).
|
||||
|
||||
Use the template pack in the files, including PNG / PDF and AI files to fill in with your software of choice. If you've filled it in, I'm happy to polish it with custom icons and release it in this repository.
|
||||
|
||||
My aim with these skill trees is:
|
||||
|
||||
- Modern, relevant and ordered correctly from basics at the base to advanced at the top
|
||||
- flexible with goals rather than too specific, everyone's journey is different
|
||||
- Inspiring to try new things rather than completionist
|
||||
- Include options for tools that aren't cost / availability restrictive
|
||||
- Ideally, globally applicable - I am not based in the USA
|
||||
|
||||
With a total of 73 skill tiles, there's a lot of boxes to fill in! To help prompt ideas, I usually include the following:
|
||||
- What's the first few things you do in this skill?
|
||||
- What materials might you use at a basic / intermediate / advanced level?
|
||||
- What tools might you use at a basic / intermediate / advanced level?
|
||||
- What techniques might you use at a basic / intermediate / advanced level?
|
||||
- What might go wrong and how would you fix it?
|
||||
- What safety considerations do new users need to learn about?
|
||||
- Where might you visit to learn more / get involved in a community?
|
||||
- What interskill / interdisciplinary techniques could you try? Eg. Electronics + Textiles = Wearable Tech
|
||||
- Gifting a friend something made from x skill
|
||||
- Teaching a class or friend on x skill
|
||||
- Releasing an online tutorial on x skill

# Skill Tree Contributor Stickers
|
||||
If you've spotted something that could be improved in a Skill Tree, I'd love to send you a holographic rare contributor sticker in the mail to say thanks. We've each got our own great unique experiences and perspectives in our skill areas and I'd love to draw on our collective knowledge to polish these skill trees into their best versions. Bug Feedback form: https://forms.office.com/r/eemK9VhJFm
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## How to Peer Review
|
||||
Peer reviewers must be an expert in the skill area and contribute detailed feedback, including making sure that:
|
||||
- The trees are modern, relevant and technically correct
|
||||
- Tiles are not too specific and include more broad options for flexible interpretation (for example, rather than 'build a clock' it could be 'add electronics to a project'.
|
||||
- Ordered correctly from basics at the base to advanced at the top
|
||||
- Weaker tiles that could be swapped for stronger tiles
|
||||
|
||||
If a skill tree has been peer reviewed twice, it is now ready for translation and indicates a high level of confidence in the content. Peer reviewers may contribute this feedback as an issue in Github with 'Peer review' in the title, and can recieve a contributor sticker in the mail if they wish by completing the bug feedback form above.

**Will you keep the 'Skill Trees' name when they aren't really traditional skill trees?**
|
||||
While these templates are skill tree inspired, I realise they are not made up of connected nodes like traditional skill trees. However, many games, like Borderlands, Starfield and others also have skill systems without connected nodes that still use the skill tree name. I have decided to keep the name 'Skill Trees' to make the concept easier to understand at a glance.
|
||||
|
||||
**Are you interested in making more books with different skills?**
|
||||
Yes, I'm interested in working with teachers to make a book aimed at kids and a binder style book which allows you to swap out and swap in the skills you're interested in so you can have a book tailored to your own interests.
|
||||
|
||||
**Are you going to make a web app of this system?**
|
||||
Not in the short term, but I'm interested in speaking to companies who may wish to licence skill tree content for this purpose.
