As a case study on beginning teachers' teaching professionalism in science-gifted education, we analyzed their teaching professionalism based on pedagogical content knowledge. To do this, we selected 3 elementary and 3 secondary beginning teachers from science-gifted education institutes in the metropolitan area. After their science instructions for science-gifted students were observed, in-depth interviews were conducted. Analyses were conducted with taped videos, researcher's field notes, and transcripts for in-depth interviews. This study revealed that most of the teachers had relatively desirable belief about science-gifted education. However, they tended to have a little deficient practical knowledge about science-gifted students, the curriculum for science-gifted education, science contents, the instructional strategies for science-gifted education, and the assessment in science-gifted education. These results imply that many teachers are likely to have a little deficiency in teaching professionalism for science-gifted students in various aspects, and need to find the ways of improving their teaching professionalism.

This study aimed to explore the problem in curriculum development in school-based gifted program in the arts and suggest the way to solve that. For this study, we surveyed 28 teachers and guest instructors, furthermore interviewed 6 teachers (4 in music and 2 visual arts). The study results indicated that not only curriculum development of school-based program for the gifted in the arts was not systemic, but also most teacher depended excessively on guest instructors due to the lack of expertise and information for curriculum development. Also, They did not understand specific meaning of the giftedness and gifted curriculum in arts nor recognize the unique role of school-based gifted program. In addition, most teachers simply attempted to solve lack of knowledge and experience on a personal level. Their research condition were inadequate to plan curriculum. To solve these problems in curriculum development in school-based gifted program in arts, we suggested some solutions: differentiated teacher in-service program, the achievement criteria for fundamentals of curriculum, system for connecting materials, information and human resources, as well as consultative body for improving the present condition of school-based gifted program.

과학영재 교육의 목적과 효과를 달성하기 위해서는 과학영재들의 특성, 과학영재의 판별이나 교육 프로그램의 개발, 과학영재들의 과학, 과학자, 과학관련 직업에 대한 인식 등 여러 요소들에 초점을 맞추어 연구해야 하며 이를 바탕으로 교육해야 한다. 과학영재교육의 중요한 점 중 하나는 우리가 교육하는 과학영재들이 성장해서 그들의 영재성을 발휘하도록 하는 것에 있다. 이는 국가적으로도 매우 중요한 일이다. 과학기술의 발달과 국가의 발전은 뛰어난 영재들이 기여를 하였으며 그 업적을 통해 국제경쟁 사회를 선도해 나갈 수 있기 때문이다. 과학영재 교육의 성공 기준 중 하나로 노벨상 수상을 기대하는 것이라고 생각할 수 있다. 물론 노벨상만을 목표로 하는 것은 과학영재교육이 왜곡될 수 있으나, 과학영재교육을 통해서 과학 분야에 뛰어난 인재를 양성하고 이들로부터 과학의 수준이 높아지면서 자연스럽게 노벨상을 수상할 수 있을 것이다. 2002년 노벨 과학상에서 일본은 물리학과 화학 두 분야에서 수상자를 배출하였다. 특히 노벨 화학상을 받은 다나카 고이치는 박사학위도 없는 40대의 평범한 회사원이었다. 그는 일본 과학계를 장악하고 있는 유명 국립대학의 교수도 아니고, 수상 발표 뒤 대부분의 일본 화학자들이 누군지 몰라 당황했을 정도로 잘 알려지지 않은 인물이었다. 이러한 사건은 일본인들에게 희망을 안겨주었으며 과학 및 과학자에 대한 관심과 투자에 대한 인식에 있어 많은 변화를 초래하였다. 노벨상 자체가 국가정책의 목표가 될 수는 없지만, 과학자나 국민 개개인들에게 희망이 되는 것은 사실이다. 해마다 노벨상 수상자가 발표되는 시점에서 우리들은 아주 오랫동안 방관자가 되어 왔다. 이제 여러 과학영재교육기관 등을 통해서 과학영재 교육을 효율적으로 실시한다면 조만간 상황이 바뀔 것으로 기대할 수 있다.택한 이유는 첫 번째가 사회 봉사와 국가 발전에 기여하기 위한 것이었으며, 다음으로는 생활의 안정을 꼽고 있었다. 이외에도 과학적 업적 달성을 위해, 자신의 꿈(이상) 실현을 위해 등의 이유를 들고 있었다. 이러한 경향은 남자 영재와 여자 영재들간에 다소 차이는 있었으나 거의 유사한 것으로 조사되었다(Pearson $X^2$=2.186, p>0.05). 우수한 능력을 소유한 영재들이 과학관련 분야를 선호하지 않는다면 우리나라의 과학 발전은 그리 낙관할 수 없을 것이다. 그러므로, 영재들을 과학 관련 분야로 이끌어 그들이 소유한 영재성을 발휘하도록 하는 것은 매우 중요한 일일 것이다. 이룰 위해서는 과학 영재들이 자신의 능력에 대한 자신감을 더욱 높여야 하며 그 능력을 과학관련 분야에 발휘하도록 하기 위한 국가적, 사회적, 교육적 노력이 필요하다. 노력이 필요하다.~42.1mg$CO_2$/kg.hr였으며 12$^{\circ}C$에서 2.5~8.2mg$CO_2$/kg.hr로 일반적으로 보고되고 있는 토마토 호흡속도와 일치하는 결과를 나타내었다.다.환원당인 sucrose 함량은 계속 증가하였고 fructose, glucose, sorbitol의 함량(추황의 sorbitol을 제외)은 생장이 촉진됨에 따라 증가하다가 다시 점차적으로 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 총당과 환원당의 측정결과와 일치한 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 배의 성장에 따라 산 함량은 감소하였고 당 함량은 증가하였다.luco-pyranoside, quercetin 7-O- -glucopyranoside, acacetin 7-O-$\beta$-D-glucuronide and apigenin-6-C-$\beta$
