In an era of AI and automation, uniquely human qualities like creativity, critical thinking, and citizenship are more essential than ever for student success.
Our Vision: Making the Portrait of a Graduate a reality
We partner with school districts and states to move your Portrait of a Graduate from a poster on the wall to an integral, daily practice in every classroom.
To ensure Portrait of a Graduate initiatives are grounded in shared needs, our research defines the educational landscape. We analyzed district Portraits nationwide to establish a clear vision for learner success. This deep dive led to our Synthesis Model, capturing the essential and commonly identified mindsets, skill sets, and practices students need to exemplify by graduation.
Traditional assessment systems tend to focus on content, overlooking crucial future-ready skills like communication, collaboration, and creativity. Recognizing this gap, Digital Promise and Pearson partnered to explore and identify innovative strategies for accurately assessing these essential skills.
Leaders and educators often face challenges in operationalizing the deep critical thinking and social-emotional skillsets required for powerful learning and postsecondary success. Digital Promise offers services to support implementation, including individualized consulting and a cohort model for districts to engage in vital peer learning.
