Abstract

In this study, we developed an analogy-generating strategy and applied this to a 7th grade science-gifted class. The types of analogies they generated, verbal interactions and analogy-generating patterns, and perceptions of five groups on the analogy-generating strategy were examined. The analyses of the results revealed that there was a higher proportion of the elaborated analogies in terms of quality generated by science-gifted students individually in the analogy-generating strategy than in general analogy-generating activity. After having small group activities, most small groups generated the elaborated analogies. The frequencies and percentages of verbal interactions of each sub-stage were found to be slightly different. Analogy-generating patterns in small groups were categorized into three types; selecting in-depth source, selecting inclusive source, and selecting surficial source. The elaborating patterns of mapping between a target concept and analogies were different among the types. Science-gifted students positively perceived in terms of its values and attitudes toward the analogy-generating strategy, and they responded that the analogy-generating strategy was helpful in generating more elaborated analogies and fostering creative thinking. Therefore the analogy-generating strategy is expected to generate positive impact on the creativity of science-gifted students.

이 연구에서는 비유 생성 전략을 개발하여 이를 중학교 1학년 과학영재 수업에 적용하였다. 그리고 이 수업에서 5개 소집단의 과학영재들이 생성한 비유의 유형 및 과학영재들의 언어적 상호작용 양상과 비유 생성 패턴 및 비유 생성 전략에 대한 과학영재들의 인식을 조사하였다. 분석 결과, 비유 생성 전략을 활용한 수업에서 과학영재들이 개별적으로 생성한 비유는 일반적인 비유 생성 활동에서 보다 질이 좋은 유형의 비율이 높았으며, 소집단 활동을 거친 후에는 대부분 가장 좋은 유형의 비유를 생성하였다. 과학영재들의 언어적 상호작용은 각 단계의 영역별 하위 범주의 상호작용의 빈도 및 비율에서 약간 다른 경향이 나타났다. 그리고 소집단별 비유 생성 패턴은 심층적 소재 선택형, 포괄적 소재 선택형, 표면적 소재 선택형의 세 가지 유형이 나타났으며, 각 유형별로 대응 정교화 패턴이 다르게 나타났다. 과학영재들은 비유 생성 전략의 가치 및 태도 측면에서 긍정적으로 인식하고 있었으며, 비유 생성 전략이 더 정교한 비유를 생성하고, 창의적 사고를 하는데 도움이 되었다고 응답하였다. 따라서 비유 생성 전략은 과학영재들의 창의성 신장에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 것으로 기대된다.
