Abstract

The aim of this study is to explore the status and tasks of selecting, expanding, and supporting the gifted teachers to efficiently manage the gifted education. This study addresses that the ratio of applications for new teachers is lower and the current teachers are aging in primary school. In addition, it points out that the ratio of new teacher applications and teacher acquisitions compared to the number of teachers hired for middle school were lower. The gifted teachers are basic in their classes and work at regular schools, and they suffer from considerable exhaustion and a lack of time because of other gifted work. As a result of these discussions, it has shown the need for substantial improvement and supplementation such as school hours reduction or reinforcement adjustment, complete support for research society, invitation professional teachers other than current ones, and friday after school classes for the gifted teachers should be encouraged to work passionately. For professional development, if the positive perception and results of gifted education from the interactions between general education and gifted education be formed, and the education programs for gifted teachers be expanded, they will also contribute to the overall improvement in the quality of our education.

이 연구는 영재교육의 효율적 운영을 위해 영재교육 담당 교원의 선발·확충·지원에 대한 현황과 그 과제를 모색하는 데 목적을 두고 있다. 여기서 다룬 주요 문제는, 초등은 신임 강사 지원 비율이 낮고 담당 교원이 노령화되고 있으며, 중등의 경우 영재강사 모집 인원에 비해 지원율과 확보율이 저조한 실정이다. 영재 교육 담당 교사들은 일반 학교에서의 수업과 업무는 기본이고, 여러 영재교육 업무로 상당한 체력의 고갈과 시간의 부족에 시달리며 스트레스를 겪고 있다. 이러한 문제에 따른 논의 결과 영재교육 담당 교사들이 자긍심과 보람을 지니고 열정적으로 영재교육에 임할 수 있도록, 수업 시수 경감이나 강사료 조정, 자체적 연구회에 대한 전폭적인 지원, 현직 교사 외에도 전문성을 갖춘 강사 초빙, 금요일 방과 후 시간을 활용한 수업 등을 고려하여 실질적인 개선과 보완이 필요함을 제시하였다. 전문성 신장을 위해 영재교육 교원 연수 프로그램을 확대 편성하고, 일반 교육과 영재교육의 상호 작용을 통해 영재교육의 긍정적 인식과 결과까지 가져온다면 우리 교육의 질이 전반적으로 향상하는 데에도 기여할 것으로 본다.
