• As creativity is accessed in schooling, it follows that creative work is regularly assessed. This chapter engages in a review of literature around four critical issues relating to creative assessment tasks. Writing from an Australian context, using research based in arts education, this chapter outlines the many challenges associated with creative assessment. Critical components of creative tasks are discussed and the criteria appropriate for artistry are extrapolated. Finally, the nature of judgements in the creative learning environment is explored. A range of assessment tasks are used as examples to illustrate these critical issues. This chapter draws conclusions about the creative learning environment, suggesting future directions for assessment, reflection and audit tools that might enhance the quality of creative assessment tasks.
