Description¶

Building on their review finding that creativity is usually measured statically, the authors recommend that future research elaborate on "the moment-to-moment interactions that form the basis of long-term creative development" and on "the mechanisms that connect different levels of creativity." This directs researchers toward process-oriented, multi-level study designs consistent with their dynamic systems framework.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Studies would need designs capable of capturing fine-grained, real-time interactions and cross-level mechanisms, rather than only aggregated outcome measures

Constraints¶

• The recommendation is framed against the reviewed literature's predominant static, aggregated measurement practices

Target Learners¶

• primary school students

Target Learning Goals¶

• creative development over time

Affordances¶

• Complex Dynamic Systems Framework Childrens Creativity

Claims¶

Related Strategies¶

• Study learning dynamics through intensive, long-term, fine-grained repeated observation
