Abstract
Curiosity is the desire to acquire new information and is considered a source of inquiry and creativity. We used an ethnographic approach to examine growing curiosity and inquiry in a student with an intellectual disability while she was engaged in a creative activity. We inferred that the research subject generated curiosity-based inquiry and creativity by speaking and performing actions as well as by generating novel expressions inspired by her friends. Furthermore, she developed a sense of creative self-efficacy. The study concluded that factors that fostered curiosity were interaction methods, space creation, and novel activities.
