초록

이 연구에서는 초등 과학영재 학생의 과학긍정경험 향상을 위한 교수-학습 경험을 탐색하였다. 이를 위해 서울특별시의 한 초등 과학영재교육원에서 과학영재교육을 받는 초등학교 5-6학년 학생 36명을 선정하였다. 선정한 학생을 대상으로 과학긍정경험 지표에 관한 사전 검사와 사후 검사를 시행하였다. 또한 토요일에 진행되는 과학영재수업이 끝난 후에 일부 학생을 대상으로 과학긍정경험 향상을 위한 교수-학습 경험을 탐색하기 위해 개별적인 심층 면담을 시행하였다. 연구 결과, 해당 초등 과학영재교육원의 과학영재수업은 초등 과학영재 학생의 과학긍정경험을 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 과학긍정경험 향상을 위한 교수-학습 경험으로는 선행연구의 일반 학생에게서 나타난 '체험 중심의 탐구 활동', '학생 주도적 수업', '긍정적이고 전문적인 피드백', '탐구를 통한 지식 구성', '학생의 흥미와 적성을 반영한 수업', '실생활과 관련된 소재 활용', '모둠활동에서의 원활한 협업과 소통', '학습 내용의 적절한 난이도'의 8가지 교수-학습 경험과 과학영재 학생에게서 새롭게 나타난 '과학적 창의성 향상 전략을 통한 학습 경험', '꼬마 과학자로서의 탐구 경험', '심화 또는 속진 학습 경험', '우수한 학생과의 학습 경험', '다른 학생을 도와준 경험', '높거나 낮은 성취 경험'의 6가지 교수-학습 경험을 추출할 수 있었다. 이를 바탕으로 과학영재 학생의 과학긍정경험 향상 방안에 대한 실제적인 시사점에 대해 논하였다.

The purpose of this study is to explore the teaching and learning experiences to improve the positive experiences about science (PES) of scientifically-gifted elementary school students. For this study, 36 students in grades 5~6 at a gifted science education institutes in Seoul were selected and conducted pre-test and post-test for 'Test for Indicators of Positive Experiences about Science (TIPES).' After the weekly science classes of the institutions were over, individual in-depth interviews were also conducted with some students to explore the teaching and learning experiences for improving their PES. The analysis of the results reveals that the science classes for scientifically-gifted students have been shown to improve PES of scientifically-gifted elementary school students. The teaching and learning experiences to improve their PES included eight teaching and learning experiences that appeared in general elementary school students of previous study such as 'practice-centered exploratory activities,' 'student-led class,' 'positive and professional feedback,' 'construction of knowledge through exploration,' 'class considering student's interest and aptitude,' 'use of materials related to real life,' 'smooth communication and collaboration in group activities,' and 'appropriate difficulty in learning content.' There were also six teaching and learning experiences that newly emerged from science-gifted students: 'Learning experience through the strategies for improving scientific creativity,' 'inquiry experience as a little scientist,' 'advanced or accelerated learning experience,' 'learning experience with excellent students,' 'experience helping other students,' and 'experience with high or low achievement'. Based on these results, the practical implications for improving the student's PES are suggested.
