Hello! I am interested in finding out if Inquiry-based learning has an effect in scientific creativity of students. it will be a great help in my research if you can give me a sample test. Rest assured that you will be acknowledged in my paper.
These two articles may be of interest to you:

Ronnel Joseph Tracena Competente When I work with development workshops were creativity is an important factor I have emphasis on some key elements to faclitate the process. When we have agreed on the topic we are going to explore or develop, I focus on the following (roughly):
This is just a very short introduction. I work mostly with this in Norwegian. I can recommend the books written by Whitehead and McNiff, Müllert and Jungk, the book «The Planning of Change» by Bennis, Benne and Chin.
Is this what you are looking for?
Sami Kahn Thank you! These papers are great addition in my research.
Kjartan Skogly Kversøy Your inputs are a great help for me to understand creativity. Can you send me some papers regarding the thought process you are practicing in your workshops?
Thomas Howard Morris Thank you! Your input is a great help!
Ronnel Joseph Tracena Competente I have written three books about this topic in Norwegian, but unfortunately I have not written anything in English except this very short presentation paper form a conference. I am happy to answer questions. The topic is large so specific questions is a big help. If you look at my list of research you will find this very short paper from 2007 "An action research project in cooperation with the teachers of three schools offering vocational education at high school level". It is no problem to gather data from creative processes, but they might not be of the quantitative sort you are wishing for. I have gotten the best data through daily phenomenological questions in writing from the participants (3 or 5 questions) - this was the way I did in in relations to my Ph.D.
Dear Ronnel Joseph ,
At this moment, my research is building and validation a test to measure critical thinking, scientific thinking, and creative thinking. The aim is to carry out an internal and external validation (with students from 12 to 14 years of Brazilian schools). Can we think of validating and administering the instrument with students from your country, if it is possible and of your interest?
The research is in its initial phase, that is, organization of themes, concepts and skills to elaborate the questions for the pilot test. The instrument is built based on parametric and non-parametric tests.
Dear Kjartan --
I can't recommend anything specific - but you might find of interest the work of my late mentor, Dr. Frank X. Barron who wrote extensively about the Psychology (including the Psychological Assessment) of Creativity. Good luck with this project!
Edson José Wartha No problem. We can validate the your instrument in Philippines and Japan:)
