AI is eliminating the entry-level roles that built judgment in young workers.

The implication for K-12: those skills now have to arrive with the worker. Which means they have to be built in school.

Portrait of a Graduate frameworks exist for this reason.

The question is whether we are giving educators the tools to actually measure critical thinking, or just asking them to value it.

AI detectors flagged more than 60% of essays by non-native English speakers as AI-generated, while reading native-speaker writing with near-perfect accuracy (Stanford, Liang et al. 2023).

1/ The most in-demand skill for 2030, per the World Economic Forum: AI and data.

The largest decline in 8th grade math from 2019 to 2022: data analysis, statistics, and probability. Ten points down. Roughly a full year of lost learning.

4/ For leaders, the question is what to do about it. Federal flexibility on assessment is opening up. State conversations about what to measure are happening now.
The districts shaping those conversations are the ones who've already clarified what they value.

Our new Skills Progressions, developed with @ETSresearch, are part of a longer effort to build what we call a new architecture for high school. Learn about the work: https://t.co/MtdQlwP5AZ

The screen time conversation happening now is also an assessment conversation. Students spend hours on online curriculum-based measures and other digital formative assessment tools, claiming to improve student learning. Decreasing screen time provides an opportunity to evaluate those tools and consider more authentic, student-centered activities.
