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).

An "admission officer system" has been introduced for the purpose of changing the paradigm from the "current admission system". This is because the current admission system mainly reflects the scholastic ability test (SAT) score regulating student selection for entering university. The admission officer system focuses on not only the students' school records but also, their potential. In addition, this system lets the university screen the students according to its own founding philosophy. One feature of the admission officer system is to cultivate men of ability by caring for the selected students consistently. Typically, students are selected by an admission officer system according to document screening which includes curriculum and non-curriculum scores, discussions, and interviews. On the other hand, the admission officer system might create a lack of objectivity in the way a student is selected because of the admission officer's own subjectivity. In this study, an algorithm in which the admission officer system can maintain the objectivity on student selection is presented. This is so that the student does not experience any disadvantage from the process of the admission officer system.

We analyzed the validity of Science Highschool's selection process for the students from Science Gifted Education Center in order to suggest the direction of improvement. First of all, we invested the students' achievement in Mathematics and Science. As a result, we found that the students are not so good at mathematics and science through the selection process for the students from Science Gifted Education Center. However the difference is not statistically meaningful. On the contrary, The achievement of the students from Science Gifted Education Center is above average who were selected through the other course, e. g. the students who acquired the recommendation of principal, winner of prize in Olympiad of Mathematics or Science. We didn't find any meaningful result in the investigation of Affective Domain in Science. And then we found that the students prefer the generous environment through the selection process for the students from Science Gifted Education Center. As a whole, the selection process for the students from Science Gifted Education Center was not so satisfying. It should be reformed; we should examine the students' portfolio on the activities in the Science Gifted Education Center, and the entrance examination should include both divergent and convergent problems to find out the students' creativity. And the 3 dimensional process is also essential through the multiple steps.

The purpose of this study was to explore a more useful identification method by comparing diverse selection approaches for the gifted education programs at the each elementary school. Diverse selection methods examined in the study include 'written examinations', 'mixed evaluation', 'achievement test scores', and 'self-recommendation'. For the study, each identification group's gifted students' characteristics, such as intelligence, creativity, motivation and self-regulated learning strategies, were compared. The subjects of the study were a total of 594 gifted and normal students. The results of this study were as follows: First, there were no statistically significant differences between students in each gifted education class and gifted students who belong to the regional gifted education programs which are considered higher level of gifted education programs. While, there were statistically significant differences between two groups of gifted students and general students in all aspects examined, such as intelligence, creativity, motivation and learning strategies. In addition and most importantly, diverse identification method utilized in each school showed differences in gifted students' characteristics. Especially, students who were selected through the self-recommendation showed significantly lower intelligence, creativity, motivation and learning strategies. The implications of the study related to the identification and education for the gifted at each elementary school were discussed in depth.

In this study, selecting process for scientifically gifted students was investigated and analyzed to science education institute for the gifted in university and was compared with foreign education institute for the gifted. The number of science education institute for the gifted was unequality located to the regions, comparing with the ratio of students. Therefore it is necessary for balancing location of science education institute for the gifted according to the ratio of students to let various students have the gifted education. Comparing with the ratio of gifted students between elementary school students and middle school students, the shape of ratios seems to be a inversed-pyramid. It is necessary to select students with the shape of the pyramid, supporting them to be educated, systematically and officially. The gifted students were selected through the procedures of creative test, intelligent test and individual interview in science education institute

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.

본 연구는 2010년 전국 정보과학기술(IT) 영재교육을 위한 학생 선발 과정을 중심으로 과거의 선발 과정과 차이점을 비교해보고, 정보과학기술에 관심이 있는 교육생을 대상으로 모집된 결과로 부터 성별, 지역별, 학교별 분포를 분석하였다. 분석결과에서 남학생과 여학생의 비율이 1 : 0.29로 나타났는데 이는 남학생보다, 여학생이 정보과학기술을 접하기 어려운 분야로 인식하고 있다는 것이다. 두 번째로, 지역별 분포비율을 조사한 결과 부산지역이 가장 많은 관심 비율을 보이고 있었는데, 이는 부산에 한국과학영재학교를 비롯한 부산광역시 교육청 산하 정보영재교육원과 같은 정보영재교육의 참여도가 많은 학생들이 지원한 것으로 보인다. 세번째, 중학생과 고등학생의 비율을 분석한 결과 중학생이 고등학생보다 약간 우위를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 좀 더 일찍 자신의 적성에 적합한 영재교육의 혜택을 경험해보기 위해서이며, 학업의 내용이 학교 교과과정에만 관심이 있는 것이 아니라, 자기계발을 위한 학부모와 학생들에 관심이 높아지고 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한 국가적 IT 브랜드의 위상이 높아지고 IT의 발전이 학생들에게 많은 영향을 주었다고 본 연구에서는 판단된다. 정보과학기술 영재교육의 학생 선발 방식이 새롭게 전환되면서 무엇보다도 전국의 많은 학생들이 IT영재교육원의 교육 혜택을 받게 되었다는 점과, 많은 학생들이 온라인 교육을 통해서 소셜 커뮤니티를 형성하여 창의력과 자기계발 잠재력을 키울 수 있는 계기가 되었다는 점에서 큰 의미가 있다고 할 수 있다.

There are many problems to single sports talents out of test applicants. The physical activity promotion system has been performed to all elements school students of both 5 and 6 grades in order to evaluate overall health and physical activities since 2009. This system includes some variables which could measure the students' sports latent power, so that the system could be used to single out sports talents. In this work, we propose a primary screening method that element school teachers might evaluate sports talents based on the data of the physical activity promotion system. Two more sports talent indices which are sports flexibility index and sports endurance index are defined. The selection method of sports talents is developed by using sports latent indices including sports power and cardiorespiratory indices. This method is efficient from the view of time and cost aspects, since we do not need to remeasure all elements school students again.
