Status of Creativity in the Field of Gifted Education: A Systematic Review of the Literature

Saturday, November 11, 2023
2:30 PM – 3:00 PM East Coast USA Time
Location: Monterrey 2/3
This systematic literature review investigated researchers' perceptions of creativity as broadly defined and explored the assessment tools used in research in the last two decades in the field of gifted education. Based on the systematic analysis, the measurement of creativity is still an unsettled issue in the field, and the existing assessment tools suffer serious conceptual and psychometric shortcomings.

Learning Objectives:

  • Attendees will be able to describe the complexity of creativity, its definitions, opinions, and evaluation in a way that is academically honest but also useful for students and other educators.
  • Attendees will be able to assist others in making knowledgeable decisions about the kind of creativity they want to assess and direct them to specific assessments developed for that purpose.
  • Attendees will be more aware and equipped to comprehend and support their students' creativity.
