Assessment of creativity during family engineering workshops in informal learning environments

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

The learning sciences faces challenges assessing creativity. As such, we examine how a creativity assessment tool (the SVS novelty metric) differentiated product features and 31 families’ engineering practices, which was confirmed via video-based interaction analysis. Findings from analyses suggest that SVS novelty metric may be a useful tool in differentiating learners’ products within the same product category because they reflect the overall pattern of engineering practices when families engage in makerspaces in informal spaces.
