In cinematographic terms...

some pro DV cameras can shoot 24p. That is, they have a progressive frame rate that is identical to motion picture film, and is most desired if the video is to be transfered or intermixed with traditional film. Progressive means the entire frame is shot at one time and is not made up from 2 interlaced fields. Interlaced is prefered for broadcast TV as it doubles the refresh rate on the screen (60 fields per second) to prevent flicker and cuts the transmission bandwidth in half.

Assuming you're not talking in political terms, "Shooting Progressive" means that you are shooting 30 full frames of video (or 24 frames or even 60 frames) without using the interlaced format. Think of it as shooting 30 digital photos per second.
Another common mode is interlaced - normally 60interlaced or 60i. Think of this as shooting 60 "Half photos" and only every second line per shot. This can get detailed, but I've included two great links below that explain it well.
Hope that helps.
