About the Project
The Brilliant Storytellers Test (BST) is an innovative digital storytelling assessment designed to measure creativity in educational settings. Through interdisciplinary collaboration, student involvement, and the development of a commercial product, the project demonstrates how the Center for Innovation and Collaboration accelerates innovation, applied research, and community impact.
This project will transform the BST into a scalable, AI-assisted platform that uses automated transcription and scoring to help educators, researchers, and students better understand and support creative thinking.
