As a human kinetics phd we use assesments like TPAI to measure several competences in games as well creativity used to perform something. There's another assement test (I can't remember) but I would have to go trough my university books again!.

Every game has rules and results. Those results can be used for assessment. If we use a quiz, it's pretty simple to determine the variables. In different types of games, we have to determine those variables ourselves.

Corina Voicu, Aiud-Romania

I give students points for every good intervations in the class. They are happy.

Techniques such as awarding badges for expressing creative solutions, or even a point system whereby a certain number of points gained amounts to a grade at the end of the month.

I would prepare a scale of points the students can achieve in order to "unlock" special rewards. It could be a personal "avatar" which can be customized on the basis of how many points the kid has earned by completing his tasks in class.

I make a star chart as a scoring. I give active tasks in class.

Lidija Antolić, Croatia

lidijaantolic — 2019-05-13 13:30:21 UTC

After students finished playing a game they can see their rank on the score board. Depending on the place they achieved they get a badge, a grade or a certifikat for participation.

To assess the creativity of my students's work, I ask all students to fill an online rubric with specific criteria for each of their classmate's outcome (originality, value, and style,utility..).Then I give then points or badges.

I'm using Kahoot. The gamification is an important educational approach to motivate students to learn by using video game design and game elements in learning environments.

ALINA, ROMANIA

2019-05-13 14:31:32 UTC

I think that gamification is an important educational approach to motivate students to be more serious and hard-working, creating game based activities in learning , and also improves the atmosphere in the classroom not mentioning every mistake and each failure becomes a challenge.

AURA, ROMANIA,

2019-05-13 15:06:56 UTC

Gamification is an educational approach to motivate the students work more and encourages them because the mistakes are not emphasized and failure is not a disaster.

Nurten,Turkey

isakarakis — 2019-05-13 15:24:45 UTC

I use various assessments according to students' behaviors in class.
I give them points sometimes.

As a result, I give various awards.

as in several games, can be related to the component Achievements, that players receive when they meet a challenge in the game: avatars, badges, stamp collections, unlocking of contents, placards, levels, points ...
This evaluation can be done in function of the analysis of the final product by the students themselves and the teacher, we can even think that it can be done by the parents

For each game you play in the classroom, students need to show their skills. Games do not have to be online, as I work with younger kids, depending on the competencies I check, various games come into play. One of the games I played with the students is "Guess who I am!" in which students played and traded occupations, characters from books, historical personalities and the like.

Kristina, Croatia

2019-05-13 16:16:03 UTC

Every game has its rules and aims, therefore, it is easy to assess students success. There are several ways to "gamify" the assessment like giving points, badges, certificates, diplomas, medals, etc.

Julianna,Hungary

2019-05-13 16:17:25 UTC

Online games,exercises are very good because students can see the results at once after finishing their tasks.There are funny symbols,stickers,
voices which help them to accept
their results,
developement.

Ida, Croatia

2019-05-13 16:31:48 UTC

Gamification is very important. All that students are doing or succeed should be rewarded, encouraged. Playing games, whether online or not, have rules and aims that must be respected. Also, they teache co-operation, collaboration, responsibility. A child should be free to think and spontaneously express his emotions. Positive emotions bring pleasant moments, and such moments favor learning. Creativity is there, it only needs to be recognized. I give them scores, stars…

Marina, Zadar, Croatia

marina_kulas — 2019-05-13 16:37:33 UTC

In Alice 3, students can very well illustrate their creativity. After learning the basics, they show what they can.

Maja, Croatia

2019-05-13 16:39:24 UTC

I've never used assessment for games except for the quizzes such as Kahoot, especially when we practise some grammar structures such as passives or reported speech, or vocabulary, but in Kahoot there is a clear score feedback at the end.

Ramona, România

2019-05-13 16:42:32 UTC

digital tools can be used to certify their skills

Martina, Croatia

2019-05-13 16:42:39 UTC

I give my students points for every good work they done. But I carefully choose games for them, because I think that some games are not useful.

Sanja, Croatia

2019-05-13 17:03:33 UTC

For example, giving students points or badges, but also chocolates...or some other small rewards

Marijana, Croatia

2019-05-13 17:06:46 UTC

Every game have rules and we need to follow them. For every good thing I can give them special star, badges, certificate or good grades. Gamification is good for students because they are more interesting and learning is fun for kids. They need special skills for that.

2019-05-13 17:09:08 UTC

Biljana,Croatia
I give my pupils lough and play , and free time to play together.

Gwen,France

2019-05-13 17:27:31 UTC

My pupils create themselves the quiz about the topic they have to study for a test. We can either use it in the classroom for revisions, or it can be part of the test (with marks) , together with an essay on the same topic for instance.

Annamaria, Italy

2019-05-13 17:45:34 UTC

the playful methodology is a valid and effective tool used by the teacher to evaluate soft skills such as creativity

Emanuela, Italy

2019-05-13 17:45:52 UTC

Surely the use of the game to evaluate soft skills such as creativity can be a valid tool at the service of the teacher since through the game both virtual and real the students have to field different requests from the normal teaching

Rafaela, Croatia

The gamification is an important educational approach to motivate students to learn by using video game design and game elements in learning environments.

Camelia, Romania

2019-05-13 18:01:38 UTC

I think the most appropriate "evaluation" technique in the game is to choose games whose levels need to be unlocked to move to a higher level. Also, games with a path like the map generate self-evaluation and motivate players' persistence because you can not find the map if you do not realize the requirements of each level. Another evaluative way is providing the necessary tools in the game after each task has been done. Developing creativity is best appreciated by labyrinth or puzzle games.

Renée, Luxemburg

reneeschaber — 2019-05-13 18:17:33 UTC

I think that the gamification technique has to make a sense for the pupils. I try to motivate them by challenging them little "quests". If they achieve their quests, they get a badge and a formative feedback. As I think of Coding; the assessment could be the "result" of the coding session of the pupil; if the pupil has programmed everything in the right way; the mouse f.example get the cheese; so by doing it; the assessment is already been done by the children themselves. It is important to document their process by photos or videos.

Konstantina, Greece

2019-05-13 18:36:59 UTC

I would use gamification as tech personalities developed through students in order to do the lesson and share the information with the others as an interesting way of learning.

Jelena, Croatia

jelena_bazikic — 2019-05-13 18:47:21 UTC

All kinds of games in the students stimulate creativity. Due to the lack of technical conditions in my school, our games are simple but creative. Students are expressed on paper or through acting. Sometimes we play quizzes.

Sandra, Croatia

sandra_botunac — 2019-05-13 18:57:18 UTC

Most successful examples of using gamification techniques to assess the development of competences like creativitiy are websites or video games. As gamification should be used to increase motivation we need to make it interesting to 'players', to help them understand the objectives of the task and giving them feedback. At the end we shouldn't forget to give badges or some other written awards.

Asha

2019-05-13 19:04:42 UTC

Gamification can be best practiced by choosing appropriate games for students.

Ana

zelenamara2 — 2019-05-13 19:29:39 UTC

I think that gamification is a perfect assessment method for competences like collaboration, creativity and digital competence, due to the fact that games actually increase these competences. Collecting badges, points or stars could be a good solution and an important motivational factor for students. Cooperation and sense of competition are also very important.

I see that my colleagues suggest awarding students with best performance with badges and certificates. My idea is that the students themselves create them for a certain game, because they are all included in the process, they feel appreciated and they can be creative and help the winner get beautiful awards.

I used gamification technique as a final point of students' portfolios. During the term I also evaluate and takes notes about their works.they use web 2.0 tools.They can create games, animations,quiz show etc.. or they can create games by using recyclable materials as a tool.I put their products in their portfolio and evaluate it each other by discussing it in the class to show their efforts and creativities.

Gamification is a good way for assessment..I got into the habit of using padlets or Google forms to assess my pupils or sometimes using certificates and scoring points so as to enhance their creative skills in classroom.

Sarah khelil, Tunisia

sarahenglish1982 — 2019-05-14 00:58:52 UTC

I always use stars, badges or certificates To assess my students. They're so willing to get as much stars as possible to get the certificate of the best student. I make the certificates myself

Višnja, Croatia

VIORICA, ROMANIA,

2019-05-14 06:40:10 UTC

For younger students I used badges, stars, small awards. For secondary students I used on-line quizzes and project work. I do not like to give bad marks so I insist for the progress of my students.

Tamara, Croatia

2019-05-14 06:56:09 UTC

As I work in a secondary school, my students would not react well to getting badges, stars and so on, but I do use shadow assessment and give them grades for their motivation and involvement during the lessons.

Željana, Croatia

Kristina, Croatia

2019-05-14 07:38:11 UTC

I think that we could assess competences using gamification mechanisams. For example, using Scratch we can assess creativity, but also collaboration, communication, digital competences, etc. A student can't make a good Scratch project (or other project) without all these competences.

SEVER, ROMANIA,

After participate in online games which are used in classrome students are ranked which gives them feedback on their learning. After using games students can be evaluated which could be useful for improvement in learning. Also they can be graded or given certificate.

Olivera , North Macedonia

olivera_koteva — 2019-05-14 08:19:13 UTC

Whether it's playing online or playing over, the rules of the game exist, the spirit of the competition is intensifying. I think that in every game must to have a winner and a prize (certificates, badges, stars, ...)

To assess pupils' work in Scratch I use rubrics such as this one:

sternchen3005 — 2019-05-14 15:09:10 UTC

For two years I led a school project (a competition called "Créativité.uš") for all our students, I wanted to motivate and inspirate them in something creative. They could choose a theme, write about it (a story or a poem), paint it, make an object, anything they could think off. I offered special prices for five best works, we had "judges" to price the best and after all we had an open exposition of all pieces of art. The winners have also found their place on the school website.
This way, even though we educate cooks, barmens, receptionists, we've dicovered different creative skills in many students.

Jadranka,Croatia

jkruselj — 2019-05-14 15:14:45 UTC

How to reward creativity? The question is quite difficult. Perhaps the biggest prize is just listening actively to the student while the idea comes, and all attempts to make that pupil's idea live.

florinappsc — 2019-05-14 17:51:44 UTC

It is important that gamification elements such as leaderboards and points are completely divorced from the formal assessment of learning, and that the learners understand this to be the case. Gamification should only be used to increase motivation and should not be another mechanism by which to grade learners. I used badges.

Anita, Croatia

I believe it definitely could! As gamification requires a wide set of skills to achieve success, it would allow teachers to observe those skills in action and if they were up to the required competences.

Franka, Croatia

2019-05-14 18:27:46 UTC

I thing gamification technique definitely could be used to assess!
It can be used much competitive games to assess students. For evaluation teacher can make different badges, gave them emojis, certificates, stickers and something like that.

Marta, Spain

2019-05-14 18:30:07 UTC

The type of game to assess competences depends on the king of subject you are evaluating.
In languages, role plays can be a good game to show the level of linguistic, communicative and creative competence the students have acquired.

Aydan Akin, Turkey

Anastasia, Greece

tesivasiliou — 2019-05-14 20:48:26 UTC

Reward... A difficult discussion... For what? And for what age? For creativity, for hard work, for results?
If I may give reward, I do it with hand made certificate or stickers... Or team play for the classroom. Gamefication must be used wisely and not as a purpose but as a mean to motivate children and give a variety to the lesson. Children must also learn to listen and learn from different resources even not as much exciting as a game.

Susana Casanova, Spain

I think certificates, badges and awards of excellence are the most motivating for students. So by the tools I use with my students such as kahoot, mentimeter, quizzes, .. I reward my students and I think it's very motivating. because students generally like to be rewarded and motivated by simple gestures BY their teacher.

Shell Sull

2019-05-15 09:11:31 UTC

To assess gamification activities I would most likely create a checklist of success criteria. I would then check if the children are meeting the criteria as children collaborate during group work activities. This would help me adjust planning for the next day and guide struggling students. To 'certify' learning you could have quiz's, leaderboard competitions, stickers etc sometimes praise is enough!

I can use Minecraft platform to create stories, objects that I will use for programming. Scratch is a very useful software also. But, NextLab. tech and Open Roberta platform are my favourite as programming environment that enables children and adolescents to program easily different robot/microcontroller systems.

It is hard to asses somebody's creativity. But as I already mentioned, it can partly be done by using tools such as kahoot, quizzes plickers. But when I try to assess creativity, I always listen carefully to students when they represent and talk about their project. I look at their attitude, preparedness, interest in topic, final result of their project. That's how I can somehow partly assess their creativity, although I believe that creativity cannot be fully measured and graded in school. And it shouldn't be.

Lara, Italy

lara_palmirotta — 2019-05-15 15:42:18 UTC

With young learners (5-6 years old) I use badges, awards or stickers (smiley or stars) that children can collect to win little prizes. In 5th grade classes (10-11 years old) kids prefer self assessment rubrics based on shared criteria; however, they are very happy when I prepare a diploma or a certificate for them. I think that games give us (both teachers and pupils) an important feedback to improve the effectiveness of learning activities.

I think that the use of certificates and badges is very attractive and motivating for the students. Although on the other hand, I believe that the direct observation (through rubrics) of the teacher or the partner of the work process is the most important part because it will help to understand how the student has evolved in his process of creation and understanding.

Nina, Croatia

nduj — 2019-05-15 19:21:25 UTC

Creativity is definitely an important part of the student work and effort, but it is not the only one. Furthermore, the creativity is hard to measure and compare. Therefore, it should represent just one part of the examining and certification. In the language learning, we can ‘measure’ the creativity by, for example, the number of words, the vocabulary that is used or just by comparing students works. One of the typical exercises that bring out the creativity in students is the text with the open end; student must read the story and write its end. Their creativity can come to light and will be rewarded. However, the students that finish the story without big creativity will also receive an excellent note if other components and requirements are fulfilled.

What kind of gamification technique could you use to assess and certify the development of competences like creativity?

Diana, Croatia

2019-05-17 07:08:27 UTC

For each competence I could create a character. When students reach the first level of a competence (they show it in some kind of assignment), they get a first level character. When their competence develops, they get the same character, but in a transformed form. The goal for the students is to reach the highest form of each character.

We can use games that are required to create or construct something, such as minecraft, for example. Students thus think creatively and try to solve the problem that leads to or promotes creativity. Various projects with problematic tasks also stimulate creativity, and can be played through game and entertainment. The game of making different stories also.

Mădălina, România

I believe that this course reached it purpose, that is to make us, the teachers, use certain games and apps to send certain pieces of information to the kids. The classes will be much more entertaining and the kids will come wits more interest and pleasure . I will definitely use Scratch and Minecraft at my classes, whenever I can and whenever the topic allows me. Many thancks to he organizers and colleagues who share their experience with us !

When chcking some actitivies I also use face and my students perfectly understand the mark just having a look at the faces I have drawn.
Badges and certificates are also handy.

Maria Rita, Italy

mariarita_pepe — 2019-05-17 16:04:43 UTC

Diana, Italy

dianaclaudia67_dimario — 2019-05-17 19:53:34 UTC

Yes, it could! I think that gamification could help teachers to monitor and evaluate competences like collaboration, creativity, digital competence, communication, flexibility, motivation, empathy, self regulation...Every school has developed a list of cognitive, social, emotional competences and the criteria by which students are evaluated. But we could find a new teaching approach and more motivating and functional activities by using digital tools, such as Minecraft. Children can play with Minecraft in group and it is very useful in order to monitor social skills. As I have already written on Padlet, when children work together with Minecraft on the same project they have to pay attention to several elements and points of view. They cannot work randomly but asking themselves some questions. Does my idea fit to the project’s general design we are developing? Is it pertinent? Am I using empathy to understand my collaborators’ feelings and intentions? If we look at children while they’re playing with Minecraft, we could evaluate their social and emotional competences, their creativity, their communication and empathy, because these competences are visible and measurable. Minecraft is a useful tool to develope these competences and to measure them. According to my opinion another very useful learning approach, that I have known in this course, is the Makerspace, but perhaps is not so easy to find, in a school, the right spaces and tools to organize a project like this. In the virtual world of Minecraft, instead, children could learn more easily cooperative - learning and then they can practise it in the real world as children first, and then as adults.

Dejana Varnica, Croatia

dejanavarnica — 2019-05-17 19:53:52 UTC

I never think about it, at the time, I think I could use awards like badges and stickers that the students made for themselves and for each other, or prepare exhibitions in the class or in the school to show other students what they did so others can also give them awards (badges or stickers) .

If I were to assess my students' creativity, I would first need to think about the criteria and this is much harder since creativity is something a lot less tangible than some direct results such as answers in a testpaper. One criterion could be if the student's product included some new solutions or some novelties.
The students should be made aware of the criteria. I wouldn't base the whole grade on creativity alone, but it could win the students some extra points and help him or her with the final grade. They could also win an award of some sort.

Victoria Serban, Romania

pusa_h — 2019-05-17 21:01:25 UTC

Competences like creativity are very difficult to assess but I guess one way to do so is to engage students in different scenarios, quests or problem-solving games and then create an assessment grid that can certify the development of such competences over a certain period of time.

Silvija, Croatia

2019-05-18 14:30:34 UTC

I don't think creativity should be assessed. Of course that the most creative ones should be praised, but we should not discourage less creative ones. I would rather assess their effort, cooperation and use of language. This year I have introduced a reward for the student who has the highest score in an English test. The reward is a chocolate bar.

Marília Bação, Portugal

2019-05-18 14:48:25 UTC

Not only do I know little about gamification, but it also seems to me that assessment depends very much on each discipline as well as on the competences that we intend to evaluate/assess. Like some of my colleagues, I use (http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php) recommended in an European schoolnet MOOC but I also use Kahoot. My students also make their self and hetero evaluation and sometimes even vote in the best works / ideas ,or in in the most creative. However, I find that creativity is extremely difficult to assess and even worse to rank. In Portugal, We have only started evaluating for competencies this year (2018-2019) but it has been very difficult since we are "stuck" to grades from 0 to 20 or 0 to 100 because these are the classifications that students will take in the national exams. It has been hard work to go on "trying" to assess competencies because students, parents and ourselves are not accustomed.

Competences like creativity are very difficult to assess.

first I’ll need to think about the criteria and this is much harder since creativity is something a lot less tangible than some direct results such as answers in a test paper.

It’s also fun to work with Kahoot. Students like it and me too because grading is transparent. Also we can use games that require to create or construct something, such as Minecraft.

in this way students think creatively and try to solve the problem that leads to or promotes creativity.

Gamification could help to monitor and evaluate competences like collaboration, creativity, digital competence, communication, flexibility, motivation, empathy.

For some activities I give them also diplomas.

Tassos, Athens

goa56tk — 2019-05-18 18:30:06 UTC

Creativity, as had already mentioned is difficult to be measured. In a project/ activity we have to write down the criteria to use as a path to follow by our students. The criteria are not guidelines/ worksheets and give space to students to develop their creativity. In order to be more fun, more competitive and to give motive to our students to work hard we could connect their artifacts/ deliverables with a prize, diploma, contest etc

carlaqribeiro — 2019-05-18 23:02:18 UTC

Playing games stimulates and increases competences such as creativity, collaboration, problem solving and digital skills. One way to assess the development of these competences could be the observation of engagement presented by students or work groups in a task and the achievement of the all process and of the final project, while giving feedback and proposing challenges with rewards. To certify the development of the above mentioned competences I could create a collection of badges to collect, give more points and reward cards.

I think that creativity and collaboration can be developed if the students will make their own games, during a project. After that, the students will give badges and the teachers can give them diplomas . The students can choose a theme for the game, like landscapes, extreme phenomenon or else. I am teaching Geography, so the creativity is not the main competence to assess.

Tiziana, Italy

titty_ska — 2019-05-19 08:16:45 UTC

I think that we can discover the potential of a student throughout creativity. It has happened to me that students that had difficulties in applying during a normal lesson became exceptional during their creative moments. I must say that I have been pleased surprised lots of times. it means that, as Teachers, we should put our students in front of different activities without forgetting those ones that could be more cahotic but that can be the key of access for free expression in creativity . Students acquire self esteem if they understand that have abilities and then they will be able to apply for different school requests

Marina, Bulgaria

mbtomova — 2019-05-19 10:02:43 UTC

I think creativity is best assessed with project assignements - these could be creating an iconographic to summarise a knowledge; creating a story, using a digital book creator tools - Storyjumper, Storyboard That etc.; creating a survey, using different web tools. For me this is the best way the students can show their creativity.

Konstantina, Greece

konnat90 — 2019-05-19 10:50:06 UTC

Students can work in groups to create pretty much everything based on the subjects they have learnt(quizzes, escape rooms, constructions, digital tasks etc.). Then , they can introduce their creative work to other groups in order to play, learn, have fun and finally evaluate it. Based on common assessment criteria they can decide how creative is the work of their classmates' and even give stars, points, badges, diplomas as a reward.

All the life skills are quite intagible and very difficult to assess, especially creativity, since one man's trash is another man's treasure. Gamification can enhance monitoring of these skills' improvement, so gamification is very useful in formative assessment. I would use rubrics in which I and my students should work out a set of criteria that are to be monitored or assessed. This requires observation and reflection, both on the part of the teacher and the students. It is a process that takes time. Using quizzes and tools like kahoot can be used to assess rather students' knowledge than development of soft skills.

During the game students perform tasks based on the skills we want to evaluate (for example search skills, problem-solving). Elements necessary to assess the skills is thus provided by the interaction of the players with the game itself.
We could, for example, assess the way students solved a problem.

Gamification has several elements included such as achievement "badges",achievement levels, "leader boards", a progress bar or other visual meter to indicate how close people are to completing a task. This is why I think gamification can become a standardised assesssment method. Gamification can give students the opportunity to demonstrate their best work with respect to the knowledge, skills and abilities that a test is designed to measure.

Lucica, Romania

Najoua, Tunisia

NajouaSlatnia — 2019-05-19 16:13:48 UTC

I think that the activity of evaluating skills such as creativity is very delicate...But in general we can use games that require critical and creative thinking such as real adventure games, challenging games, coding games, etc. and ask to create their own games or reflections about the situations they have seen and study

cheminguifiras1966 — 2019-05-19 16:26:59 UTC

according to my experience the choice of games depends on the objectives we want to attain , in some case when i have for example may definitions to be learnt by my students i use mostly crossword game as by thinking of the word they will learn easily the different meanings and defintions , in other cases when the notion or the concept is a bit difficult so i prefer using a game or an interactive game or an interactive quiz to make the access of the objectives more easier
this is an example of an activity i did with my students about asexual multiplication ( in french )

It is hard to evaluate creativity and in my class I don't do that cause some of the students with SN have problems with understanding the term creativity. My students don't have computer skills so they can not express themselves in creating a game online or something like that. We are using comp.games such as crosswords or educational games (math, letters, numbers...) and an old fashion games like scrabble, pictionary, Uno, BIngo (for my students, game like Risk is non understandable). In those games they are practicing what they have learned. We love experiments and practical work.

In order to assess and certify the development of competences like creativity I think there are some gamification techniques that could be really useful, for instance, cooperation to face challenges or new quests as well as role playing because students need their imagination and curiosity to end (and hopefully) the game.

To assess creativity is not an easy task. Maybe it is enough to encourage creativity and team work.
In general, before any activitiy I make rubrics with my students so that they know what is expected from them. Maybe, at the end of the activity students could get badges or something like that.

We need to stop thinking that assessment only happens at the end of the lesson. As facilitators , we should be assessing in multiple ways and times throughout a lesson. Participants in any training learn in various ways, therefore we should use many different approaches to assess their learning along the way. Assessments can include polls, surbets, written tasks, debates and project based learning.

Clara L.; Portugal

limaclar — 2019-05-19 17:46:39 UTC

When playing certain games, students perform some tasks that involve problem solving, designing or just improving a project, a product, a plan. Thus I think that their interaction with the game can be a good way to assess skills like creativity, problem solving, persintence.

When assessing in general we need to have a clear idea of what we are looking for..., so I usually think it is better to have a final 'product' to evaluate, but also making observations on how the 'game' is played by a single st or a group of sts, and possibly a self-evaluation reference to complete our assessment task.

Carmen R., Spain

cromerodomenech — 2019-05-19 18:50:18 UTC

When students have finished a task where creativity played an important role, I think a leaderboard can be a good gamification technique to assess it. Sometimes it is a good idea to give students the possibility to vote for the best schoolwork from their mates. It helps students reflect on their own work, gain new ideas and boots motivation.

We can help our students develop their creativity encouraging them by creating stimulative atmosphere. Student can work in groups to create different game (Kahoot, Socrative, memory cards, crosswords, millionaire, quizzes, scratches, puzzles) based on a lesson they have learned. Then they can demonstrate their creativity skills to others who will have to demonstrate their knowledge.

Mina, Bulgaria

2019-05-19 21:05:43 UTC

Gamification is good for students because they are more interesting and learning is fun for kids. But every game has rules and we need to follow them. As we had already mentioned creativity is difficult to be measured. All students love to be rewarded. Of course the most creative ones should be praised. But what about the less creative ones? We should not discourage them. So sometimes I give students special stars, badges, certificates or small sweets. Or the team with the most creative work could propose the subject for the next activity/game.

Iva, Croatia

iva_svenda — 2019-05-19 21:25:25 UTC

It's difficult to assess creativity and I can say for myself that I don't think anybody taught us that. But, when I think about games and their usage in the class I would say that we could follow up student's progress through stages of a certain game and the level of his/her new ideas in this game. And we should award their efforts with badges or upgrades...things that they usually get when playing a game.

Sandra, Latvia

2019-05-20 07:22:53 UTC

It is rather difficult to assess the development of creativity. What if the teacher cannot see the potential of student's creation? One of possible solutions to gamify assessment is to integrate a point system, where students can level up by themselves and in a team. But for students to understand if their creation is really worth something, it would be useful to show it to others - teachers, students, parents, join some contests. I've found that participating in public contests on a regional or national level can help the students assess their own creativity - through opinions of many people, not just their teacher. However, students' effort and work should always be awarded, and the teacher should always stay open-minded.

GRAPAN TEODORA/ ROMANIA

When students vote they need to explain whay they think that way.

Random Input - we could ask to the students give us words (any) and then make a sentence (with a white space) about a issue (example: about envirement). In group they have to use all the words to solve the problem;
Give some sentences and in group they decide if there are true or false. After that we give them a small text that have that answers for cheking. And finally, we give the solution;
Give a task/question to develop in group and then the students make then own book (they can use storyjumper.com)

I think students have to explain to the class their work, the problems that they've had and how they've solved them.

In Maths we can recognise creativity if students can find more then one way for solving some problem, or if they can solve problems, but also design their ones. Making posters or presentations in order to present some theme in a propriate way also requires creativity.
Organising competition in some of these activities whit peer to peer assessing can be some kind of game and opportunity for certify and assess creativity.

Assessing skills using my gambling mechanism can be a much more pleasant way of checking and evaluating. Most of the time, knowledge is easier to remember by playing. Students will be more careful. They are very active in games, they all want to win, especially the smallest, who do not want or can not yet understand the rules of a game. Why would not the game assessment? It also develops digital competences and the ability to "learn to learn". Through the game, it seems that the student is encouraged positively, not stressed as a normal check.

To have a standardized assessment method for such competences is something new, but not impossible. I think that can only be assess by continuous assessment because the student is in constant development and as a human is not a finished entity yet. What I think can be evaluated are the attitude (positive or negative) in the participation and citizenship. Also, what can be done are benchmarks to define what is the minimum, medium and maximum objectives of a task that is presented through a game. Creativity could be considered as a rubric.

Emilia/Romania

The evaluation is always very complicated and requires much reflection to be fair. I think many of the techniques of gamification that we have seen can be used in the certification of competences, there is creativity!
I think the system of badges, certificates, leaderboards in creativity, may be a hypothesis. But still very much to think about...

It's a little difficult to evaluate skills using different game mechanisms, They are very useful in games competitions.
How can I evaluate: some students are creative, others have imagination, others have nothing and few are creative?

I think I would try to use levels as they are the way to keep gameplay not boring, for example a new setting, or rewards - a player may collect points every few seconds/minutes during the gameplay.

Irina,Latvia

statnukairina — 2019-05-23 17:53:07 UTC

I think that gamification could help teachers to monitor and evaluate competences like collaboration, creativity, digital competence, communication, flexibility, motivation, empathy, self regulation.

To change the setting, rewarding or collecting point could be used to assess and certify the development of competences like creativity. Keeping in track of the newest games online, DIY projects done throughout games are some of the gamification technique that can be used. But the most important is the preparation of the teacher and its competence for this field.

Nelma Patela, Portugal

nelmapatela — 2019-05-24 10:50:55 UTC

o assess and certify the development of competences like creativity is something i'm not able to, yet. However, I think that gamification could help teachers to monitor and evaluate competences (more than contents) like creativity, communication, collaboration, digital competence, flexibility, motivation, empathy, self regulation.Thanks to the newest games online, DIY projects done throughout games are some of the gamification technique that can be used on the classroom. But first of all, it is important to prepare teachers to be able to promote and assess in this field. Anyway, I suppose the game itself, with different levels and scores, is a very good help to assess.

Marta, Croatia

In order to encourage creativity even more, I would like to learn how to implement games in my classroom and that is way I joined this course.

Marlena, Croatia

2019-05-24 13:52:50 UTC

Virtual environments have proven to be good learning engagers. They generate opportunities to create, explore and communicate. Student creativity can be improved by mixing virtual environments and gamification. Students should be motivated to perform creative tasks that required knowledge and skills acquired before. Here are my favourite gamification techniques you can experiment with: Quizzes, Leaderboards, Badges, Challenges and finally: Playing actual games!

Raquel, Spain

rherna26 — 2019-05-24 15:00:45 UTC

I see very clearly how gamification can be use to develop the above mentioned competences. However assessment is very tricky, and specially for competences like creativity I don't yet see how to "gamify" assessment of those.

Melanija, Croatia

2019-05-24 17:35:48 UTC

I would like to use Minecraft to develop creativity in learning process. I often make my own games for students which help them to learn in different ways but these kind of games like Minecraft would get them on the next level.

Erika Jabato

2019-05-25 06:59:57 UTC

Creativity could be assessed using Minecraft, Scratch, Code... However, I think that would be in an ideal world. Having three hours per week and having to focus our attention to the curriculum, I do think it's extremely difficult to implement this kind of evaluation and even the projects.

Raffaella Bedini, Italy

2019-05-25 09:32:32 UTC

I guess it is very hard to find a standardised assessment method for these kind of competences....traditionally we evaluate contents and results.

adeasut — 2019-05-25 14:40:42 UTC

I use a selfcreated self-assessment in which the students can select a skill and evaluate their own progress on a bar. This bar is not numbered or has no scale. The student can make his/her own interpretation.

I think is very hard to certificate general competences like creativity, but games could be a useful instrument if we allows children to use their own imagination and not only one way.

Dunja K., Croatia

quince6219 — 2019-05-26 09:50:32 UTC

Leaderboards, badges and other virtual 'marks' and means of assessment are a good start but I think that we need to develop a completely new strategy which will help our students to understand what we have assessed. Creativity is a difficult one to assess as in part it depends on the idea we may like or not like.

Antonella Italy

grigiante — 2019-05-26 12:27:09 UTC

Creativity is the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality. Creativity is characterised by the ability to perceive the world in new ways, to find hidden patterns, to make connections between seemingly unrelated phenomena, and to generate solutions.
how can you certify it?

Elisa, Italy

2019-05-26 12:54:28 UTC

As I've said in other posts, I usually give badges or points to evaluate my stydents' skill. Creativity is a peculiar skill, really different from the ones we can evaluate at school. It is something you were born with, not something you can acquire through learning.

Johanna Chardaloupa, Hellas

2019-05-26 15:27:24 UTC

Creativity has to do with thinking, connecting and pruducing. So, if I can create - or use - a game, that "urge" thingking , connecting & combining unreleated phenomena to"produce" something new, THAT'S creativity! And if the result is more or less unexpected, it is still creative!

I think that creativity cannot be evaluated or measured, but I believe that much can be done to develop it, to stimulate it, to encourage it. In this sense gamification is the high road.
Everything can be useful: Scratch, Minecraft, Thinglink, Tynker, Tinkering, all the Apps that offer learning by playing.

Susana, Spain

2019-05-26 18:59:31 UTC

I don't think assessing and certifying creativity is easy, maybe we can evaluate how students solve problems, or how they create games.

Marta, Croatia

2019-05-26 19:39:26 UTC

I would create rubric - evaluation list in which students could see what will be regarded. For example: visual effect, speed, team work... Student can get 1, 2 or 3 points at every rubric and then we could be able to see the progress. It is not easy, but it is possible. It takes time to develop creativity by playing all sort of games.

Marcela, Romania

marcyro — 2019-05-26 21:46:32 UTC

Students can be asked to design a work using the mere Scratch and then to apply an assessment grid or peer assessment.

Ivana B

Célia Ferreira-Portugal

2019-05-27 09:06:12 UTC

I think by challenging students to create projects through the gamification mechanisms we can gauge their creativity.
But I also think that we may have some difficulty, some students are not responsible for these tasks.

2019-05-27 09:13:02 UTC

Yes expecially if teachers learn to cooperate and use several subjects together to get to a common results

Tiago, Portugal

tiago_vilaverde_gomes — 2019-05-27 16:20:15 UTC

At the same time, it motivates students and challenges them to create.

I think that creativity is hard to assess, but it is not impossible. We can make criteria or checklists that will clearly indicated what is being scored. Students can present the project/ game/ posters/ some other work that they make and through their presentation we could follow their preparation, social skills, interest in subject, and in the end their final work and presentation.

For younger students we can use badges, stickers, diplomas, candy. Older students can use self-assessment rubrics based on agreed criteria, diploma or certificate.

Lina Tetradi, Greece

linatetradi — 2019-05-27 17:27:11 UTC

Assessing the development of competences like creativity is a big challenge for me and I can only think of rubrics and peer assessment! However, I really like Emilia's (Romania) idea about introducing a system of badges and a leaderboard, as well as Sandra's (Latvia) idea about getting students to participate in contests! Thank you for sharing these great ideas!

Natalija, Croatia

2019-05-27 18:13:03 UTC

Absolutely yes. The game develops creativity. The level of creativity can be measured by the ability to create something new.

Dijana, Croatia

paluncicdijana — 2019-05-27 19:02:19 UTC

in my opinion we shouldn't assess or certify creativity, we can only be supportive and encourage pupils to continue working what they love and to develop their creativity as far as it goes, but to assess it I believe there is no tool or a game for that.

Marisa Rocha, PT

2019-05-27 19:24:36 UTC

Assessing creativity is not a simple thing to do. Maybe we should concentrate in assessing the process, step by step, and other skills, such as collaboration, curiosity, responsibility, perseverance, among others. I think peer-assessment and the use of rubrics (preferably put together with students' participation and ideas) are good ways of assessing. That and some of the gamification techniques mentioned throughout this MOOC, like the use of badges, levels, prizes and certificates, for example.

But first of all, it is important to prepare teachers to be able to promote and evaluate in this area. In any case, I assume that the game itself, with different levels and results, is a very good evaluation aid.

Mevludiye, Turkey

2019-05-28 05:42:17 UTC

Mariam Jlassi, Tunisia

mjlassikaaniche — 2019-05-28 16:26:50 UTC

I assess my students after every unit. the criteria of the assessement is the originatity of the idea, the multiplicities of the techniques and the most important think is the objectif and the result during the presentation and the argumentation. being creatif is being convinsing and facinating.

Rocio spain

cmn, Austria

2019-05-29 12:09:11 UTC

This seems to be a really difficult question. It depends of a lot of aspects and different perspectives. It might has to be clear what the construct "creativity" means and then it might be possible to assess it. It feels like the same discussion about "intelligence".

Fadila, Croatia

fzoranic — 2019-05-29 16:09:46 UTC

In order to evaluate creativity, we should first define what creativity is with our students and set a framework for evaluating their work as "creative", which is not easy at all. We should create such an environment in the classroom that encourages the students to create and not to be afraid of being evaluated or making an error, not to be afraid of expressing themselves.

Ivana, Croatia

ivana_delac — 2019-05-29 16:13:11 UTC

Padlet as a learning diary comes to mind. I gave all my students an assignment of having a padlet on which they'll upload their homework and essay assignments, and also interesting videos, articles, memes and other things related to psychology and things we learn. Some showed amazing creativity in this task, putting a lot of interesting stuff and commenting on it, and also finding fun facts and memes that showed that they associated the subject with something fun, not tedious. I think it is near impossible to evaluate creativity, but it can be noticed in those students who stand out in tasks like this one.

Rebecca, Malta

becky_pisani — 2019-05-29 17:02:59 UTC

How can you assess creativity? Should it even be assessed? I believe that every child is creative in their own way. All children are creative in one way or another. Who am I to say that one child is better than the other because of their creativity skills?

Natasha, North Macedonia

2019-05-29 20:29:16 UTC

I think that creativity is really hard to assess and I don't know that it should even be assessed because everyone is creative in their own way and every creation should be praised. But maybe the students themselves can choose the best final product?

Natalie

2019-05-30 08:26:30 UTC

George Cornel, Romania

Anastasia P., Macedonia, GREECE

2019-05-30 16:03:33 UTC

I would gamify the development of competences like creativity by presenting it as a quest students would be involved in for a semester; they would have to face challenges, for each challenge they overcame, they would be given points. After gathering certain points they would move to another level (each level would be named, have a different colour and would represent a mark). So challenges-levels-certificates of achievement given when they reached some levels-rubrics to know how they could overcome challenges, that is how they would be assessed regarding creativity(degree of originality...). Some challenges would include games, quizzes with quizizz or kahoot. This is a gamification technique that I would use to assess the development of creativity.

Annika, Finland

annika_prinsen — 2019-05-30 17:02:13 UTC

I'm not sure that we should assess creativity. You can be creative in so many different ways. Some students are creative with their writing, some when they draw and some when they use Scratch.

Aisheh

Vayia Mihou, Greece

2019-05-30 20:51:10 UTC

I believe that what is more important is that pupils manage to complete the task. Especially in primary school. This will give them a sense of satisfaction. Otherwise, we run the risk of discouraging them. We assess our pupils with tests - tests do not apply on creativity.

Educational games are excellent tools for developing learning and skills. Not being a solution for all educational contexts, when idealized and with defined objectives, they are presented as a way to motivate and involve more students.

Tools like Edpuzzle, Google Form or Thinglink, are very interesting and fun.

Jacek, Poland

jacekfrancikowski3 — 2019-05-31 12:53:08 UTC

One of the key concepts of gamification is ‘Goal-focused activity’ and this works best when there are clear
‘checkpoints’ in an activity that can be used by the learner to establish their progress and identify remaining tasks.
This feature is often evident in good learning design, however there may be situations when this concept conflicts
with the required learning outcome.

Gamification in assessing creativity? Sounds good but hard to implement as creativity is difficult to measure. Yet, forms where anything created by the students, no matter how creative it may be, will lead to an award or to the next challenge would be something I could use to assess creativity.

Margaret, Poland

Every child is different and has a different level of creativity. I wouldn't assess it. I would just take what every child offers to me. Without comparisons.

Iris

2019-06-01 15:21:16 UTC

I'm not sure if assessing creativity is possible, especially standardized assessment. Not all children are interested in same things so for one child a creative outlet might be a painting, for another one it would be a poem etc.
Gamification might be helpful because students love games and are equally involved.

Veturia, Romania

2019-06-01 17:41:22 UTC

I guess that creativity is hard to assess and this is not the point of our work. But we should encourage children in every possible way to manifest and develop their creativity, so playing games it may help them in this direction.

Niamh, Ireland

2019-06-01 18:40:53 UTC

I am not sure how measurable creativity is through gamification or otherwise. I think it is more subjective than other skills. Perhaps assessment of creativity needs to be equally individual for children. I use Seesaw for online portfolios. The children upload work samples in all subject areas to their portfolio over 8 years in primary schools. This gives an indicator of their progress through their e-portfolio.

Inga, Latvia

elksne_inga — 2019-06-01 18:53:07 UTC

I am not sure if standardised assessment methods are even possible and necessary for such a phenomenon as creativity. Children have different social, economic background, some of them haven't had enough contact and communication with their parents in early childhood, and they have not developed creative thinking at all. Of course, it is possible to learn something at school but I don't think that there should be standardised assessment of creativity, even through games.

Cristina, Romania

Difficulties with defining creativity aside, and including students who just do not work in that way, giving a open answer assignments then giving out extra badges for:
- different approach to solving the problem
- number of different solutions found
- unique solutions
I think I could work with something like that.

STEFANIA, Italy

2019-06-02 07:56:04 UTC

I believe that the most suitable form of gamification to evaluate the acquisition of skills such as creativity is the use of a video game, even better if created by the students. Let's start with creativity and use creativity to proceed in the game. It is the most useful form thanks to its structure organized by levels, which would allow the involvement of all the students. Students would receive immediate feedback on their actions, obtaining points, badges and prizes. The video game increases involvement thanks to challenges and missions and teaches time management with time targets.

Any programme or form of crafting etc that the pupils would be familiar with could be used for evaluation of the development of different competences. Teach the pupil the technique, let him/her create something. Let them play and practise their creativity for a longer time, and in the end evaluate their latest creations and compare it to the work done in the beginning. Be careful that you evaluate the target, the competence your exercise was aiming to develop. Creativity is difficult to bring out and difficult to evaluate.

When I do project work with my students, I create moments of discussion where the self-assessment and hetero-evaluation of the presented works are done.
The different groups
the positive aspects, the negative aspects of each project and suggestions for improvement that help me in the assessment of competences.

Tabita, Romania,

2019-06-03 13:49:18 UTC

Cristina-Romania

cristinabumbacea1969 — 2019-06-03 18:09:44 UTC

Iren, Spain

2019-06-03 18:33:23 UTC

I think that whichever game could be used to assess and certify the creativity, because with them, the students enjoy themselves and learn new skills and at the end they expose the result to the others and it is very gratifying for them.

Use first two letter and they create a new word with it in one minute for e.g. br= bride, brunch, brother, bra, bread etc

We should make a list of things/steps which are expected of students to do and assign points according to their progress. Maybe time limit could be one of them.

Yes I think gamification could provide a solution to assessment method. Eg. I made GooseChase game for my students. They had to find different photo evidences in our school yard (square, rhombus, deltoid, trapezius... different types of triangles, fractions... everything we learned about this school year). When they could not find the evidence, they made it themselves (it was their idea). They had some fantastic ideas.

In primary school various techniques are used. I think it is important to feed it, it is to carry out activities in small groups with forms of reading and creative writing. Now there are various methods that can be used; those most adopted by me are those promoted by the Erickson publishing house. However there is the methodology of Riz Poletti, the word cloud methodology, the methodology of the Caviardage method. There are also platforms that help to create comics and crosswords. Then the code .org platform. To evaluate I would use grids made by me based on simple observations at levels

I use gamification to assess competences very often because working with younger students the best way to assess them is through games. It is also the best way to help them develop their creativity

MJ Verdu, Spain

eaocornella1 — 2019-06-04 12:53:23 UTC

In my opinion all the techniques proposed offer the possibility of developing creativity. However, there are too many differences among children and not of all them can create extraordinarial tools giving the same materials, time and space.
I think this is something very difficult to assess but by the other hand seems to be indispensable to work with them. In that way we can give them the opportunity to depelop and be able to create something good or not very good, but something will be created. ;)

I use the gamification to assess competences but I do not give grades. We can use Kahoot, smiles with little ones, on-line quizzes and there is a wide range of possibilities.

I think it's very hard to mesaure creativity. We can encourage students to show and develop their creativity. Maybe games can be helpful to develop their creativity.

Ivana, Croatia

It's difficult to measure crativity as a competence, maybe with extra points.

I didn't know how measurable creativity is through gamification. Maybe it is more subjective than other skills.

I can use scratch https://scratch.mit.edu/

Students can use this tool to give instructions to a robot and lead it to explore a geographic space. They have to give coordination in English for instance so that the competence to use a foreign language is assessed. They have to use Mathematics, Science and Engineering competences and also creativity, autonomy, initiative and critical thinking, the ability to workin groups to reach a common purpose and of course the digital competences. If the purpose is reached, the robot can move it in the space, the competences are tested and assessed through the efficiency of the students’ product.

Maybe it would be interesting to try to make something on the computer and try to repeat it in classroom with different materials.

Students play games and earn badges or awards for accomplishing tasks. This can be perfect for teaching creative subjects. Students can get simple rewards, like a virtual badge once they finish a task. These rewards are easy and keep students motivated.

I think that creativity is very difficult to assess; we can however assess the product of creativity using different methods: it is possible to give badges, awards or certificates for the accomplished work, we can use symbols like emoticons, we can create a rubric where we define the items and how they have been achieved.

The creativity is very hard to evaluate, but I encourage the students who can add more logical rules in a game, who can change a rule with another one more complicated. And I give them extra points, of course.

Vilija, Lithuania

vilija_rakstiene — 2019-06-08 07:03:37 UTC

For example, to give the assignment for students to create the quiz for the exact topic in Kahoot! and they should use 2 songs, one video, 3 photos, 2 drawings, etc. If they use all the aspects, we can assess that they completed the task creatively.

How can creativity be assessed? Imagination, creativity, curiosity have to be trained like a muscle in order to work better. I would not define a mechanism for assessing competences using gamification, but I will put more attention for the training of teachers and the correct ability to evaluate soft skills during the observation in which children are involved and really engaged.

Creativity is developing in the situations where you should change your routine. So, each activity planned to face our students with unexpected situations are for that. Using the gamification elements like the challenge, the element of chance, the competition, the cooperation, the feedback, the rewards, the winning or the progression in educational process helps to built engaging environment for students.
