The purpose of this study is to investigate the education system for science 34gifted/talented students in Korea. There are fifteen science gifted/talented education centers established in major universities, sixteen science high schools and one research center for the gifted education in science located at KAIST. To examine the selection procedure and the curriculum of the education centers and science high schools, the annual reports of the fifteen education centers and the annual plans of sixteen science high schools are analyzed. About 200 gifted/talented students are employed in the field of science, mathematics and information science at each education center, Multidimentional education system is developed for efficient way of teaching for the gifted. The curriculum and teaching method for each education center is unique and different from the science high schools that follow nationally given form.

The purpose of this study is to develop the programming language teaching materials for the gifted of information with using the game. There are many curricula for teaching the information and technology to the gifted of information. There are not differences between these programs and the general IT curricula. The gifted of information has some complains about his curriculum(58/60, 96.67%). So this study developed the alternative programming language teaching materials for the gifted of information. This study concluded the effects of alternative materials for teaching programming language depend on learners' academic achievement about programming language with game activity. This study also looks forward to being able to indicate new direction to develop the teaching materials for the gifted of information.

This study analyzed the perception of effectiveness and satisfaction according to learners' background variables and characteristics in online gifted education program. The participants included 630 middle and high school students who attended the 3-months online gifted program. Participants volunteerly surveyed on background and characteristics such as gender, grade, subjects, self-efficacy of internet, and self-regulated learning, and the effectiveness and satisfaction of the online gifted education program. T-test, ANOVA, and MANOVA were conducted to analyze the effect of students' background and characteristics on various dependent variables. The results of this study showed that (1) overall, participants perceived the effectiveness of the online gifted program positively; (2) participants perceived the satisfaction of the online gifted program positively. In specific, they perceived system satisfaction higher than interaction satisfaction. (3) the personal characteristics which impacted on both effectiveness and satisfaction were grade, self-efficacy of internet, and self-regulated learning. Suggestion for the online gifted education program were discussed.

The study attempted to articulate standpoints towards compulsory education system based on schooling age and year in careful considerations with the gifted. For these ends, literatures were reviewed and various education laws, regulations and documents and related law reports and judicial decisions were investigated. Literature review was conducted to develop that ideas of rights to compulsory education for regular students are closely related to those for gifted. Structures of general education laws and gifted education law and regulations were compared. Later, limitations of compulsory education were discussed when it was applied for the gifted. In conclusions, it is inappropriate that the gifted are ruled by compulsory education system based on schooling age. If compulsory education system is designated to provide an effective opportunity for all students, it should be duties and rights to enter elementary schools at schooling age. However, it appeared that the duties and rights to enter elementary schools at certain schooling ages function as inhibitors against the gifted with giftedness and potentials far beyond those of regular students. Therefore, the gifted should be separately ruled under flexible systems of compulsory education if their achievement level is assessed as sufficient to enter elementary schools before schooling age. On the other hand, legal systems of compulsory education are gradually evolved to flexible systems. However, it is necessary to establish social atmosphere and support system of educational administration in order to practice the flexible system of compulsory education for the gifted.

We study on administration system and teaching of R &E(Research and Education) in Korea Science Academy(KSA) laying stress on Mathematics project No.7. We analyze in detail administration system of R&E in KSA(for example, aim, human constitution, practical execution), and draw some meaningful suggestions in order to receive successful results in R&E of KSA. And we describe mathematical topics, problems, and results which are received by students of KSA in the process of R&E(project No.7).

21 세기의 초 정보화 산업사회에서 우리의 아이들이 자신의 목소리로 세계 속에서 살아가게 하기 위해서는 다른 사람과 다른 아이디어를 낼 수 있도록 교육의 틀을 바꾸지 않으면 안된다. 따라서 21세기의 미래 사회를 살아갈 학생들을 가르치는 교육의 현장 역시 창의적인 인간을 길러낼 수 있도록 변해야 한다. 즉, 자신의 아이디어로 창조적인 삶을 영위해 나갈 수 있는 독창적인 아이디어를 낼 수 있는 인간을 육성하는 교육체제로 바뀌어야 한다. 이러한 관점에서 본 영재학회에서는 대전광역시 초·중고등학교 학생들과 대학생, 일반인들을 대상으로 제3회 대전사랑·과학사랑 창의력 경연대회를 실시하였다. 그리고 대회실시 결과를 평가·분석하여 교육현장에서 창의성 교육이 확대 실시될 수 있는 방안을 제안하고자 하였다.

Then, the Delphi method was employed to validate the evaluation criteria. Delphi survey was carried out twice with 30 panelists consisting of experts in educational assessment, experts in gifted education, experts in arts(gifted) education and administrators in gifted education. Delphi survey was analyzed using the mean, content validity ratio, and the degree of consensus. Results were as followed. First, 58 evaluation criteria for gifted curriculum in arts were developed through literature review and expert opinions. The evaluation criteria included 12 context evaluation criteria, 25 input evaluation criteria, 12 process evaluation criteria, and 9 product evaluation criteria. Second, through the first and second Delphi survey, 2 evaluation criteria were not validated and finally were removed. The final evaluation criteria included 12 context evaluation criteria, 25 input evaluation criteria, 10 process evaluation criteria, and 9 product evaluation criteria. The evaluation criteria developed by this study can be used as a standard to establish the institution assessment system at the national level and evaluate institutions and programs.

This study analyzes the interaction of the policy of human resource in science and technology and the policy of education for the gifted. In Korea, the goals of gifted education seem to have gravitated more toward serving the national perspective of creating a pool of high-quality scientists for economic development, rather than toward helping individuals achieve their educational aspirations and promote their talents. The science education policy for the gifted can be categorized into two: one primarily by the Ministry of Science (MOST) and another by the Ministry of Education (MOE). So far, the policy of science education for the gifted has been written by MOE. Such an imbalance has been created because the two ministries differed in their values and priorities. MOST has designed the science education policy in order to foster the gifted as high-quality human resources in science and technology that can help contribute to economic development. On the other hand, MOE has designed the policy for the gifted with educational equity in mind. Although the policy by MOST had have more influence in implementing overall policies of educating the gifted, the two ministries have interacted and formulated the educational system of gifted in Korea. This study sheds light on the process that MOST has legitimized their science education policy for the gifted by designing it in line with the national and social goals, and has formulated a basis on which the gifted can contribute to R&D for economic development.
