All Rights Reserved. SKILLS PROGRESSIONS VOL. 1 3  \nINTRODUCTION  \nUnderstanding the Skills Progressions  \nThe gap between what young people need to thrive and what high school currently  \ndelivers has never been more apparent. As Artificial Intelligence reshapes work and  \ncivic life, the capabilities that distinguish human contribution—collaboration, clear  \ncommunication and critical thinking—have become essential, not optional. To be clear,  \nyoung people must study mathematics, humanities and science, and must read and  \nwrite with fluency and depth. They must also hone essential skills. Both are key for  \nsuccess in school, work and life. Yet our education systems struggle to define, develop  \nand credential these skills with the same rigor that we apply to academic content.  \nStates have started to respond. Across the country, more than half of states have  \nadopted Portraits of a Graduate that articulate an expanded vision for what students  \nshould know and be able to do by commencement. At their best, these portraits are a  \nvision that encompasses both disciplinary knowledge and the durable skills proven by  \nresearch to predict long-term success. But articulating a vision is only a first step. To  \nensure that essential skills are effectively integrated into core academic subjects, and  \ntranslate into meaningful credentials that postsecondary education institutions and  \nemployers recognize and value, we need shared, science-based definitions: What do  \nthese skills look like as they develop? What conditions support their growth? How do  \nwe know when a student has reached proficiency?  \n©2026 Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and ETS. All Rights Reserved. SKILLS PROGRESSIONS VOL. 1  4   \nINTRODUCTION  \nThat is the purpose of these Progressions.  \nThe Skills Progressions, developed by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and ETS, offer research-grounded definitions of three capabilities essential for success in school and career:  \n• Collaboration explores how students move from basic participation in group work toward the ability to integrate diverse perspectives, navigate conflict constructively, and build the trust that allows teams to accomplish more than individuals can alone.  \n• Communication traces growth from foundational message-making toward more sophisticated adaptation across audiences, contexts and modalities, including the active listening and comprehension that make genuine exchange possible.  \n• Critical Thinking maps the development of students’ capacity to seek and evaluate information, construct evidence-based arguments,  \nreason logically and reach well-founded conclusions even in the face of complexity or ambiguity.  \nEach Progression describes how a skill develops in sophistication over time, moving through four levels—Exploring, Analyzing, Integrating and Extending—with subskills and indicators that offer increasingly specific descriptions of what students know, understand and can demonstrate.  \nThis work draws on decades of evidence from the social, developmental and cognitive sciences, refined through feedback from educators, postsecondary education lea","cbCainR7iX8lskSP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainR7iX8lskSP","pdf",12672233,34,"English","# Contents\n## Introduction\n## Notes on Use\n## Collaboration\n## Communication\n## Critical Thinking\n## Conclusion\n## Acknowledgements\n## References","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Skills Progressions?\",\"answer\":\"The Skills Progressions provide shared, science-based definitions of how collaboration, communication, and critical thinking develop, what conditions support growth, and how proficiency can be recognized.\"},{\"question\":\"How do the three skills develop over time?\",\"answer\":\"Each skill progresses through four levels—Exploring, Analyzing, Integrating, and Extending—using subskills and indicators that become increasingly specific.\"},{\"question\":\"Do the Progressions prescribe one single learning pathway?\",\"answer\":\"No. They describe knowledge, abilities, and behaviors holistically, and evidence of student growth may appear across many contexts, modalities, and communication styles.\"}]","SKILLS PROGRESSIONS - Vol. 1 | PDF",1792046528,86]
