Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore relationship of Creative Problem Solving and science book report, and develop a new assessment tool for Creative Problem Solving. For this purpose, we analyzed the process of creative problem solving using created questions in science book reports reported by gifted elementary school students, and made assessment standards. The developed assessment tool based on the created questions in the science book report on ¡¸E=mc©÷¡¹ by 30 students attending Seoul National University of Education Gifted Education Center is focused on the five creative problem solving components (Motivation, General knowledge, Divergent thinking, Domain-specific knowledge, Critical thinking). The positive effects of new assessment tool are to complement the previous result evaluation¡¯s fragmented knowledge measurement, and to check students¡¯ real creative problem solving process.
