The purpose of this study is to analyze elementary school students' class contents and activities between the invention class for the gifted under the local education office by the 'Gifted Education Promotion Act' and that under the invention classroom by the 'Invention Promotion Act'. For this study, the survey was conducted to 1,788 elementary school students who attended the invention class for the gifted both under the local education office and under the invention classroom. The analysis of the survey showed that the students of the invention class for the gifted under the local education office had higher motivation and participation rate in class, higher interest in invention, and stronger significantly in a future oriented will than those under the invention classroom. The parents of the invention class for the gifted under the local education office showed more enthusiastic attitude to support their students, and had significantly stronger recognition that the participation of the students in the invention education for the gifted helped enter an advanced school than those under the invention classroom. However, the class contents of the invention class for the gifted under the local education office such as 'understanding the influence of the invention history and products on society', 'scientific inquiry skills for problem solving', 'technological and engineering abilities for creating an invention', 'developing knowledge and abilities about business and management by using a new invention' were not different from those under the invention classroom. In addition, discussion and presentation were not active in the class activities of the invention class for the gifted under the local education office. Therefore, the researchers should compensate and develop a program which can apply strategically differentiated class contents and class activities to the students who participate in the invention class for the gifted under the local education office by the 'Gifted Education Promotion Act'.

본 연구는 영재교육과 관련된 법체계의 구조와 교육법적으로 쟁점이 되는 사항을 살펴봄으로써 영재교육과 관련된 법적 논의의 대상을 모색하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 '영재교육진흥법'과 동법 시행령의 법률상 위치를 고찰하였다. 다음으로 입법과정과 주요내용, 법제에 대한 공과를 논의하였다. 마지막으로 법 체계와 목적, 영재교육 대상자, 교육과정, 영재교육 교사에 대한 법 규정에 대한 논의를 하였다. 그 결과 영재교육에 대한 법 제정의 역사가 10년도 채 되지 않는 상황이어서 법체계와 상위법의 근거 조항 및 목적 등의 미비점이 발견되었다. 또한 영재교육 대상자의 권리를 확보하기 위한 법적 조치가 필요하고, 교육과정 역시 부분 수정이 필요하며, 국가나 지자체의 책무성이 보다 강화되어야 했다. 그리고 교원 자격은 보다 엄격하게 규정되어야 할 필요가 있었다. 그리고 향후 특정 주제별로 구체적인 분석을 위해 고려되어야 할 사항을 영재교육 입법, 교육재판, 교육정책 등으로 제시하였다. 그러나 본 연구는 개괄적 수준에서 법의 기본 체제나 내용을 제시하였으므로 전체적인 법적 구조까지 검토하고 제시하지 못한 한계가 있다.

There is currently a growing need to nurture creative and convergent talent in the face of the fourth Industrial Revolution. Developing such talent requires interdisciplinary convergent education across the science, engineering, humanities, social studies, and arts disciplines. Such interdisciplinary convergence could cultivate humanities and social knowledge and qualities along with scientific expertise. In Korea, there are currently six science schools for the gifted that aim to discover and nurture science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) researchers from an early stage, and two science and art schools for the gifted that aim to cultivate new talent combining students' scientific and artistic qualities. These schools establish and follow curriculums that are suited to achieving the education objectives guaranteed by the Gifted Education Promotion Act and its Enforcement Decrees. This study compares the curriculums and curriculum tables of the science schools for the gifted to those of the science and art schools for the gifted to evaluate their methods of operation and performance. Additionally, it determines which curriculums provide an opportunity for students to nurture convergent thinking, and discusses how suitable curriculums could be implemented to develop convergent thinking.
