The evaluation of creative tests Euphrosyne Efthimiadou

The development of the book "The Evaluation of Creative Tests" aims to raise the awareness of learners and trainers towards creative and innovative didactics while exploring new avenues in the development of creative tasks through six (6) categories of activities. While taking into account the fact that a creative form may result by similarity, contiguity or contrast, the range of responses becomes increasingly diverse and may reach both convergent and divergent forms. It is suggested to follow the evaluation criteria for a triple dimension: a. to evaluate cognitive skills, b. to evaluate socio-affective skills, c. to evaluate behavioural skills. As for the pedagogical objectives, on the one hand, pupils should be given the opportunity to get a better idea of the progress to be made while making the most of their potential and, on the other hand, the teacher should make his or her pedagogical intentions explicit. In tomorrow's education, creative competence will be assessed using multimodal and open approaches, with a view to renewing the teaching process and bringing it into line with new assessment requirements.
