How is creativity evaluated?
Posted by:
a. All students will be given the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT), Figural version, as a first measure.
b. If a student scores at or above the 90th percentile, it is a qualifying score.
c. If the student's score is between the 80th percentile and the 89th percentile, and the student has qualifying scores in two other areas (mental ability, achievement, or motivation), then a second measure will be given. The Gifted Rating Scale or Gifted Evaluation Scale will be used as a second measure of creativity. If a rating scale cannot be used as a second measure, then another form (alternate Figural or Verbal) of the TTCT will be administered as a second measure of creativity.
