چکیده

Originalité et innovation sont deux des principaux aspects à considérer pour définir la créativité par rapport à l'éducation. Si le spécifique domaine dans lequel la créativité doit être développé est la haute éducation, ceux deux aspects deviennent des caractéristiques particulières. Par ce travail on cherchera d'éclairer la raison pour laquelle est important évaluer la créativité, de faire quelque exemple d'évaluation de la créativité avec l'aide de la technologie et de déterminer quelles pourraient être les caractéristiques les plus importantes d'un bon méthode d'évaluation. En particulier on parlera des «Observatoires d'enseignement et d'apprentissage», un instrument innovateur d'apprentissage à distance par les images, développé à l'Université de Nottingham. Summary: Originality and innovation are two of the main aspects to be considered in order to define creativity in education. If the specific field of interest, where creativity should be developed, is higher education, these dimensions become peculiar features. The attempt of this contribution will be to highlight why it is worth to assess creativity, to show some examples of assessment of creativity performed with the help of technology and assume which could be the most valuable characteristics of a good assessment method. In particular the case of the Teaching and Learning Observatories, an innovative way of distance learning through images, carried out at Nottingham University, will be described.
