**How to make the most of the skill trees project with ethical considerations and recommended ways of working.** **How to make the most of the skill trees project with ethical considerations and recommended ways of working.**
The Skill Trees project is about using gamification to help you find your skill levels, identify skill gaps and inspire you to try new things. Using aspects of gamification like points, badging, leaderboards and progress bars can help you set goals and upskill. With a distraction free, on paper experience, the original intention of this project is to give users a chance to reflect and meditate on their current selves and their journey ahead.

However, gamification can be used in ways that might incentivise short term growth but provide the wrong motivations for completion, negatively affecting growth journeys. Addictive mechanics and dark gamification have no place within the skill trees project, and I’ve outlined some examples how to avoid this.
