Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to develop tools for identifying specific skills, learning styles in science and attitudes toward science of gifted children, and to create science education standard for the gifted. In this study, a highly reliable and valid gifted behavior checklist in science was originally developed. The checklist was used to investigate characteristics of scientific giftedness of children, prospective science teachers, and adults. Further, an original science education program for the gifted was developed in this study and a pilot study of the program for specific contents and age level has been carried out.
