It can be stated that scientific creativity is a fairly new research topic for early childhood. Although creativity is one of the skills that are frequently discussed in early childhood research, studies dealing with scientific creativity, a type of creativity specifically related to science, are very limited regarding this period. In this review study, scientific creativity was conceptually examined and research conducted on scientific creativity with children attending primary and secondary school were included. Whether scientific creativity is possible in early childhood was examined according to a limited number of studies examining scientific creativity in this period. Additionally, based on previous studies, suggestions were given on how to support scientific creativity in early childhood. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
