What it does
Unpack a broad standard or competency descriptor into specific, assessable success criteria and sub-skills. Use when interpreting curriculum standards or writing learning objectives.
Competency Unpacker
What This Skill Does
Takes a standard, learning objective, or competency descriptor, often written in abstract, compressed language, and unpacks it into four actionable components: observable indicators (what a student who has achieved this actually DOES), prerequisite knowledge (what must be in place first), common misconceptions (what typically goes wrong), and success criteria at multiple levels (beginning through extending). The output transforms opaque curriculum language into concrete, assessable, teachable components. AI is specifically valuable here because competency descriptors are deliberately compressed, a single sentence like "analyse how writers use language and structure to achieve effects" contains multiple skills, knowledge domains, and levels of sophistication that must be unpacked before they can be taught or assessed.
