In this paper, it conducted the following works to develop the selective test for the gifted of information science in elementary schools. First, it presented the discrete mathematical thinking as an essential competence of elementary information science gifted, through theoretical research with many expert's studies, in order to investigate the definition and characteristics of information science gifted. Second, it developed a test to measure the discrete mathematical thinking, according to the results of analysis of discrete mathematical elements, appeared in the 7th national mathematics curriculum, in order to extract the characteristics of selective test for elementary information science gifted. Third, regarding the verification of items in a newly developed test, it adjusted the difficulty and discrimination by conducting 2 sessions of preliminary test, and then finally confirmed that the standards of items in the test, by testifying sufficient level of validity after the application to a main experiment.

As a sequel of "special improvement act for gifted student education" legislated on January 2000, "regulation act for gifted student education" was published on April 2002 which is the time Korea has settled down its education for the gifted. Announced in the December 2007 "general plan for development of gifted student education" provided a platform for the gifted student education in Korea of growth in quantity, in which a plan of providing gifted student education up to 1 percent of the elementary and middle school level students (approximately 70 thousands) has been established while the education currently provides to 0.59 percent (40 thousands) of all students. Until recently, however, education for gifted students has been performed based on the way of concentrating on academic domains. and it has put more weights on mathematics and english domains. In order to overcome this drawbacks, there have been various attempts for growth in quality of education for gifted students, one of them is the our proposal of convergence of science and art education for cultivating 21 century creative humans through establishment of new type of institution. In this paper, education curriculum and management strategies appliable to the proposed convergence education institutions for gifted students. For this purpose we derived the implication points through analysis on education processes used in korea science school for the gifted students, a representative institution for the gifted students in Korea, and we suggested educational process curriculums for the science and art institute for gifted students along with the detailed contents of convergence subject which is an essential subject to the institute.

In this paper, we attempted to provide the bases of effective educational programs for fostering ICT competencies of gifted students in science. For this purpose, we tried to answer the questions like 'What are the ICT core-competence for gifted students in science?' and 'How can we educate those competencies effectively?' We started by reviewing existing studies on ICT competencies for talented people in future society and then adopted one[6] as the basis for further validation. We tried to work with as many G/T experts as possible, and decided to use the online survey methodology because the experts are scattered all over the country. The survey was sent to the corresponding person who is in charge of G/T education in each area, and then e-mailed to G/T experts in that area. Through these procedures, three hundred four(304) G/T experts from all around the country participated in this survey. The results showed the followings: (1) G/T experts agreed with the importance and necessity of ICT competencies for gifted students in science; (2) G/T experts agreed with the validity of three core ICT competencies, which are 'knowledge and skills competence, creativity competence, and characteristic competence,' for gifted students in science; (3) G/T experts agreed with the validity of educational goals, which are suggested for fostering each ICT core-competence of gifted students in science; and (4) G/T experts regarded 'product-oriented education' and 'ICT device-oriented education' as important and effective types of education programs for fostering ICT competencies of gifted students in science.

A basic ability test is conducted in recent days to screen gifted students who could make a contribution to the enhancement of national competitiveness in knowledge-based information society. A basic ability is here defined as an ability related to creativity and thinking faculty, and CS literacy is ruled out, though it seems that everybody needs CS literacy in knowledge-based information society. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between CS literacy and giftedness. The subjects in this study were 61 gifted students. The selected students participated in an CS program during a six-week period of time in order to find out the effect of the program. And it's found that there were gaps among the students in CS literacy according to the level of giftedness, and information science literacy has a statistically significant correlation to giftedness. Therefore a screening test of gifted students should cover CS literacy, as CS literacy seems to be mandatory for every field of information society.

본 논문에서는 퍼즐을 활용하여 초등정보영재교육 방안을 제안하고자 한다. 현재의 정보영재 교육과정을 살펴보면 프로그래밍학습과 알고리즘 학습에 치중하고 있다. 이것은 직접 체험하고 조작하며 학습하는 초등학생의 특성상 효과적인 방법이 아니다. 따라서 흥미와 재미의 요소를 포함하고 정보교과의 부담을 줄여주며 논리적인 사고력을 향상시켜줄 수 있는 퍼즐을 활용한 초등정보영재교육을 제안한다. 또한 최근 컴퓨터 과학에서 강조하고 있는 계산적 사고(Computational Thinking)와 퍼즐활용교육과의 관계를 살펴보고 퍼즐활용 교육을 통해 계산적 사고를 기를 수 있음을 제시한다. 추후에 초, 중, 고 정보영재교육을 연계를 위한 퍼즐 교육에 많은 연구가 필요하다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the curriculum of the University-affiliated Science Gifted Education Center from 2018 to 2020 to analyze the proportion of the information area in the total class and the contents of the class, thereby confirming the trend change in the information area. After analyzing the number of hours that information education occupies in the total number of class hours, information education was classified into three categories: computer use education, SW coding education, and SW convergence education, and the curriculum was analyzed in detail. The analysis results are summarized as follows. First, the proportion of information education in total education is gradually increasing compared to 2018. Second, the proportion of computer utilization education in information education is relatively decreasing, and SW coding education and SW convergence education are expanding. Considering that the field of information education has been expanded in various forms, more systematic information education will be provided to students in the future and its usefulness will increase rapidly.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the education system for science 34gifted/talented students in Korea. There are fifteen science gifted/talented education centers established in major universities, sixteen science high schools and one research center for the gifted education in science located at KAIST. To examine the selection procedure and the curriculum of the education centers and science high schools, the annual reports of the fifteen education centers and the annual plans of sixteen science high schools are analyzed. About 200 gifted/talented students are employed in the field of science, mathematics and information science at each education center, Multidimentional education system is developed for efficient way of teaching for the gifted. The curriculum and teaching method for each education center is unique and different from the science high schools that follow nationally given form. This study shows new selection method and unique curriculum for the science gifted/talented students employed in the education centers.

Although communication technologies are developing day by day, moral and ethical attitude in using the technologies do not come up with thier development. Because of this, the negative side of development is getting worse. Recently, educational and social institutes are recoginizing the depth of the negative effects of development and are trying to teach communication etiquettes and ethics. However, a systemic education of communication ethics for the gifted students in the information technology field is absent. Education should be done appropriately according to the levels of its recipeints. Thus, it would be necessary that education of commuication ethics be performed suitable for the gifted students. In this paper, We analyze the actual state of Internet usage of the gifted students of elementary school and also to present a plan for teaching the ethics of communications to those students.
