The pervasive theme of the models presented in this thesis is epistemological concerns of what to teach and how to teach in school subjects as in previous studies. In the models presented in this thesis, the emphasis is on: Knowledge a patterned form of significant human experiences, which represent the real world should plays a central focus when we regards school curriculum for enhancing creative problem-solving ability in students. The common organizing elements are determined in establishing the unit and the assessment developing model: Declarative knowledge, procedural knowledge, and creative problem solving. In the unit development model, five activity components are decided as understanding basic knowledge, drawing concept map, investigation by guided discovery, explanation, and creative problem-solving. Assessment components correspond to unit activity components. By combining organizing elements with activity/assessment components five types of unit activities/assessment tasks can be created. These activities/assessment tasks can be either progressively presented or they can be provided at the same time. In this way instruction and assessment can be effectively integrated, which means, we can assess what we teach. The assessment results will offer information about the student progress as well as the validity of the school curriculum.
