Zusammenfassung: | In this paper, we describe the process of students' self-assessment of their creativity and its development in the context of posing mathematical problems, presuming that such a process would support the development of their creativity. Examination of two case studies reveals that self-assessment of creativity may support its development provided that one possesses specific personal recourses; however, this process might suppress the creativity of those lacking the needed resources. Therefore, we suggest that self-assessment of creativity cannot stand on its own, and should be supplemented by teachers' feedback or other environmental 'scaffolding'.
