The purpose of this study is to analyze selection methods of gifted students. This study focuses on the understanding the characteristics of gifted students in accordance with the selection methods, i.e. the examination selection and automatic promotion by analyzing and comparing the academic emotion, meta-cognition, and self-efficacy between gifted students selected according to the selection methods. Moreover, for the purpose of the effective gifted education, this study aims to arrange a reasonable basis for the discrimination and selection of gifted students. The results of this study were as follows. First, there was no meaningful difference between gifted students selected by an examination and promoted automatically in view of academic emotion, meta-cognition, and self-efficacy of gifted students. It is determined that there is no difference between the effects of selection methods under the condition of the same group of gifted students. Second, regarding the academic emotion of gifted students, there is no significant difference in both the elementary and middle school in case of examination selection. However, in case of the automatic promotion, the academic emotion of gifted students promoted automatically in the gifted education center was higher than that of the gifted students in the gifted class (p < .05). Regarding the meta-cognitive skill, there is no difference in the elementary school between the selection methods. In case of the examination selection in the middle school, the meta-cognitive skill of male students of the gifted education center was higher than that of the female and gifted class students (p < .05). In case of the automatic promotion in the middle school, the meta-cognitive skill of students of the gifted education center was higher than that of students of the gifted class (p < .05). As for the case of self-efficacy, there were no differences between the selection methods. In the automatic promotion, self-efficacy of students of the gifted education center was higher than that of students of the gifted class (p < .05).

This study examined the attention and attention shift of general students and mathematically gifted students about pattern by the types of mathematical patterns. For this purpose, we analyzed eye movements during the problem solving process of 5th general and mathematically gifted students using eye tracker. The results were as follows: first, there was no significant difference in attentional style between the two groups. Second, there was no significant difference in attention according to the generation method between the two groups. The diversion was more frequent in the incremental strain generation method in both groups. Third, general students focused more on the comparison between non-contiguous terms in both attributes. Unlike general students, mathematically gifted students showed more diversion from geometric attributes. In order to effectively guide the various types of mathematical patterns, we must consider the distinction between attention and attention shift between the two groups.

In this study, gifted children's perceptions of scientists were investigated. The subjects were 91 elementary students who were registered in educational program for the gifted. This study was conducted using Draw-A-Scientist-Test (DAST) and questionnaires about the life of scientists. As the results, most scientists were depicted as well-featured and young people. There was a tendency that boys mainly described scientists as male, but girls as female. Many of the students perceived scientists as those who did significant works to try to help other people and pursue the novelty The general perceptions of the gifted on scientists were positive. Majority of students, however, perceived that scientists worked indoors with glassware or chemicals. Relatively, fewer students described books, other materials, and technologies including computer. Many of the students perceived scientists＇work as research or invention. Concerning working pattern, students mainly replied that scientists worked alone. In order to make students＇restricted perceptions enhance for opened and flexible manner, various educational methods need to be implemented.

In this study, lessons on coordinate, percentage, and factorization in prime factors were taken with TI-73 calculator for 20 elementary school students in the 5th grade math gifted class in Pohang city. Through these lessons, the researcher examined with cases how using the calculator would influenced the lessons for the gifted students, and attempted to obtain implications on using calculators as learning tools in class. Activity sheets were made for this study and a 80-minute lesson was held three times for three weeks. In order to collect data, the class was recorded on videotape, the students were interviewed, and documents used in the class were collected. Then all the data were transcribed. Data analysis was completed through several readings of transcripts and main themes were derived by classifying, comparing, and contrasting coding. As a result of the study, the calculator played a role the tool as the mediation to communicate and the challenge their solvable tasks beyond the limitation of paper and pencil environments. But, in using the calculator, there was differences in gender between boys and girls. Above all, to enter commands into the calculator resulted in obstacles for learning process.

In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, talents should not be subordinated to a particular discipline, but must be able to converge a variety of disciplines. It is important to have a fused thinking because elementary school students are likely to make various changes. Therefore, when selecting elementary gifted students, they are selecting students for fusion gifted students. This study examines the effects of creative problem solving ability, document evaluation, and interview factors on student selection when selecting students for gifted students. The results show that creative problem solving ability has the most influence on selection. In the case of the fifth graders, the creative problem solving ability and the document evaluation influence the selection. In fourth graders, the creative problem solving ability and interview affect the selection. In the case of female students, it was found that creative problem solving ability and document evaluation influenced selection. In addition, there was a gender difference in the evaluation of documents in the gender difference analysis. There is no significant difference between the three groups in the grade-by-grade difference analysis.

In this paper, the researchers investigated the influence of graphing calculator in learning the concept of linear function for the gifted students. Elementary students who were taking a course in enrichment mathematics at Science Education Institute for the Gifted in Mokpo National University were selected for this study. The researchers analyzed students' processes of mathematical inference and conjecture, and students' algebraic description. We found the facts that the visualization using a graphing calculator and CBL is helpful to the gifted students in understanding concepts of liner function, finding the relationship between variables, analyzing and presupposing of graph. But, using graphing calculator can be a factor that disturbs learning of students who have too much of curiosity on graphing calculator.
