영재교육진흥법과 그 시행령이 발표된 이래 2003년 현재 초등의 경우 91개의 영재교육원과 101개의 영재학급에서 전체 학생의 약 0.22%가 교육을 받고 있으며, 점차 그 대상이 확대 운영될 예정이다. 영재교육을 실시함에 있어서 우선적으로 해결할 문제는 '어떤 사람이 영재이며, 영재를 어떻게 판별할 것인가?' 그리고 '그들에게는 어떤 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 프로그램을 제공할 것인가?'이다. 그러나, 현재 영재에 대한완전한 정의가 내려지지 못했으므로 표준화 될 수 있는 판별 모델도 없다. 본 연구에서는 영재 판별에 관한 문헌 연구 및 현재 실시중인 영재교육원 중 몇 곳의 영재 선발 과정 비교 ${\cdot}$ 분석을 통하여 우리 실정에서 실현 가능한 영재 판별 방법 및 절차에 관한 모델, 판별 시 고려사항 등을 알아본다.

This study is intended to reconsider the meaning of the education for gifted/talented children, the foundation object of science high school by examining the behavior characteristics between gifted students and talented students in open-end mathematical problem solving and to provide the basis for realization of 'meaningful teaming' tailored to the learner's level, the essential of school education. For the study, 8 students (4 gifted students and 4 talented students) were selected out of the 1 st grade students in science high school through the distinction procedure of 3 steps and the behavior characteristics between these two groups were analyzed according to the basis established through the literature survey. As the results of this study, the following were founded. (1) It must be recognized that the constituent members of science high school were not the same excellent group and divided into the two groups, gifted students who showed excellence in overall field of mathematical behavior characteristics and talented students who had excellence in learning ability of mathematics. (2) The behavior characteristics between gifted students and talented students, members of science high school is understood and a curriculum of science high school must include a lesson for improving the creativity as the educational institutions for gifted/talented students, unlike general high school. Based on these results, it is necessary to try to find a support plan that it reduces the case which gifted students are generalized with common talented students by the same curriculum and induces the meaningful loaming to learners, the essential of school education.

영재는 그 다양한 특성으로 인하여 객관적인 판별도구를 개발하는 것에 한계가 있으며 판별절차에 관한 학자들의 이론도 다양하다. 특히 고도의 창의적인 능력을 나타내는 수학 영재아의 경우에는 더더욱 그러한 면이 심하다고 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 인천과학 영재교육센터에서 실행했던 중등 수학영재선발과정에 대하여 살펴보고 이에 대한 문제점을 검증함으로써 앞으로 더 발전된 수학 영재아의 판별을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

In this study, we presented a teaching-learning method that can apply process-focused assessment for mathematical creativity of problem solving process of the gifted student, By necessity of appropriate teaching-learning program development to the level and ability of students who belong to high school gifted classes and courses evaluation for students who participated in education programs for the gifted. In the construction implementation process of students utilizing a kind of teaching-learning software, GeoGebra. We analyzed process of a variety of creative constructing figures using interfaces of GeoGebra and algebraic calculation. Utilizing 'Construction Protocol' and 'Navigation Bar' of GeoGebra, We identified computer languages, construction order, run times used in construction process of individual student and found mathematical creativity of students in the process. Comparing this result with prerequisite learning degree of individual student, We verified that this teaching-learning method can apply at the high school gifted classes as well as institutes for the gifted education in the city office.

This study is aimed at providing the theoretical framework of characteristics of mathematical thinking processes and structuring the thinking process patterns of the mathematical gifted students through the analysis of their cognitive thinking processes. For this purpose, this study is trying to analyze characteristics of mathematical thinking processes of the mathematical gifted students in an objective and a systematic way, by using think-aloud method. For comparative study, the analysis framework with the use of the thinking characteristic code as a content-oriented method and the problem-solving processes code as a process-oriented method was developed, and the differences of thinking characteristics between the two groups chosen by the coding system which represented the subjects' thinking processes in the form of the language protocol through thinking-aloud method were compared and analyzed.

The history of the gifted education in mathematics is short. And the governmental policies and school practices for gifted education were more focused on gifted education in science. But the gifted education in mathematics will become an important part of gifted education. A situation of the education center for the gifted in science is developing favorably more and more because students and parents have a correct understanding of the education center for the gifted in science. The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the mathematics curriculum, the contents of education at mathematics class and the actual conditions of operation by the education center for the gifted in science attached to 23 universities in Korea. And we suggested several ideas to improve the problems for gifted education in mathematics.

The purpose of this study is to show the Fractals activities for mathematically gifted students, and to analyze the constructions on Fractals of the mathematically gifted. The subjects of this study were 5 mathematically gifted students in the Gifted Education Institut and also 6th graders at elementary schools. These activities on Fractals focused on constructing Fractals with the students' rules and were performed three ways; Fractal cards, colouring rules, Fractal curves. Analysis of collected data revealed in as follows: First, the constructions on Fractals transformed the ratios of lines and were changed using oblique lines or curves. Second, to make colouring rules on Fractals, students presented the sensitivities of initial and fractal dimensions on Fractals. In conclusion, this study suggested the importance of communication and mathematical approaches in the mathematics classrooms for the mathematically gifted.

The purpose of this study is developing the manifestation process model of group creativity among mathematically gifted students. Therefore, I designed the manifestation process model of group creativity by researching the existing literatures on group creativity and mathematical creativity. The manifestation process model of group creativity was applied to mathematically gifted students' class. By analyzing students' response, the manifestation process model of group creativity was improved and concretized. In conclusion, the process of a combination of contributions was concretized and the major variables on group creativity such as a diversity, conflict, emotionally supportive environment and social comparison were verified. In addition, some reflective processes was discovered from a case study.

This research intends to understand classroom culture of gifted youths in secondary mathematics. For this purpose, we have observed ethnographically the mathematics classes of gifted youths for eight months at two Science Education Centers for Gifted Youths. We have collected qualitative data using the methods, participation observation, interviewing, video taping, recording, collecting assistant materials. And these data were closely connected and analyzed synthetically. From this, we found the followings; First, gifted youths in mathematics evaluate the academic abilities as the best standard for their friendship. Second, the gifted youths in secondary mathematics are under an obsession that they should act like gifted youths. Third, even though they know the merits of class type of inquiry and discussions, they didn't participate actively in those types of class. Forth, main differences of classes between Gifted Education Centers and general middle school come from the difference of class type, the roles of teachers and students.
