Discussion: How to evaluate creativity?

In thinking about evaluation of creativity and about research on creativity it is useful to consider having a taxonomy which enables us to classify and distinguish different types of research studies and topics. E.g., are we talking about individual creativity or group creativity, are we talking about a creative process or a creative product., etc. The attached Powerpoint slide deck proposes a first take on such a taxonomy. –tom hewett

I recently tried to construct a framework of metrics to evaluate scientific creativity in collaborative and distributed settings. Paper can be found here. Feedback is appreciated.
