기하는 수학의 기초를 이루는 중요한 영역이다. 그러나 기하교육을 위한 프로그램 설계와 교수전략에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 그러므로 현장의 수학교사들에 의한 프로그램개발과 동시에 프로그램과 지도방법을 통합하는 수학교사들의 지속적인 연구가 절실히 요구된다. 이에 본 연구는 영재의 특성들을 고려하고 교사 중심의 강의식 수업보다는 토론, 발표, 세미나에 적합한 프로그램을 구안해 보았다. 프로그램 설계의 내용적 면에서는 기하학의 한 방법인 해석기하학과 현재 고등학교에서 다루는 Euclid 초등기하의 한계를 넘어 공선(共線), 공점(共點)의 비계량적 개념의 사영기하학을 도입하였다. 그리고 프로그램을 운영하는 방법적인 면에서는 문제제시단계, 문제해결단계, 수학적 개념추출단계, 수학화 단계, 확장단계의 단계별 절차를 두었다. 이와 같은 수학영재교육 프로그램의 설계 및 교수전략의 목적은 수학영재들을 새로운 문제와 지식을 제안하고 생산하는 수학 창조자를 만들고자 하는데 있다.

This study investigated the difference of mathematical beliefs between common children and the gifted children, and then the effect of current mathematics gifted education on gifted children's mathematical belief. Gifted children from institution for gifted education and school based gifted classroom, and common children from regular classroom from S-city office of education in Gyenggi province were studied for this study. The results of this study was as follows. First, there was positive correlation between mathematics performance and mathematical belief. Second, common children and gifted children had significant difference in the degree of mathematical belief. And also, mathematically gifted students had much stronger and positive mathematical belief than common students before starting gifted education program. Third, there was no significant difference in common children and gifted children on the mathematical belief after they receive gifted education, but there were negative changes in gifted children from institution for gifted education on the mathematical belief after receiving gifted education.

The purpose of this study is to analyse how a mathematically gifted student constructs a nested signification model of three signs, while he abstracts the solution of a given NIM game. The findings of a qualitative case study have led to conclusions as follows. In general, we know that most of mathematically gifted students(within top 0.01%) in the elementary school might be excellent in constructing representamen and interpretant But it depends on the cases. While a student, one of best, is making the meaning of object in general level of abstraction, he also has a difficulty in rising from general level to formal level. When he made the interpretant in general level with researcher's advice, he was able to rise formal level and constructed a nested signification model of three signs. We suggested 3 considerations to teach the mathematically gifted students in elementary school level.

This research is designed to analyze the metacognitive thinking that mathematically gifted elementary students use to solve problems, study the effects of the metacognitive function on the problem-solving process, and finally, present how to activate their metacognitive thinking. Research conclusions can be summarized as follows: First, the students went through three main pathways such as ARE, RE, and AERE, in the metacognitive thinking process. Second, different metacognitive pathways were applied, depending on the degree of problem difficulty. Third, even though students who solved the problems through the same pathway applied the same metacognitive thinking, they produced different results, depending on their capability in metacognition. Fourth, students who were well aware of metacognitive knowledge and competent in metacognitive regulation and evaluation, more effectively controlled problem-solving processes. And we gave 3 suggestions to activate their metacognitive thinking.

The purpose of this study is to verify the validity of a creativity measurement tool and to discover the creativity characteristics of creative gifted students by assessing the difference in the creativity characteristics of creative gifted students, who were selected from gifted students in elementary and middle schools through the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking(TTCT), according to school level and the type of the students (gifted student in mathematics, gifted student in science). To this research purpose, creative gifted students were selected by the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking(TTCT) on 594 students, who had applied for super gifted education, from 17 gifted students institutes under the jurisdiction of Jeollabukdo office of education, Then, t-tests and multiple regression analysis were performed to analyze the creativity factors between elementary students and middle school students and between mathematics-gifted students and science-gifted students. From the research, the following results were obtained. Although TTCT is effective in distinguishing gifted students with and without creativity, correlation coefficient values between creativity factors(the correlation coefficients between 'fluency' and 'originality' and between 'fluency' and 'elaboration' were .78 and .50 respectively) suggested the possibility of low uniqueness of creativity factors. In addition, compared with elementary students, middle school students showed significantly lower fluency (circles), elaboration(picture construction, picture completion), and the abstractness of titles(picture structure). In the meantime, science-gifted students displayed significantly higher originality(picture construction), and elaboration(picture construction, picture completion, circles) than mathematics-gifted students. Therefore, continuous study is required to enhance the validity of the test for the selection of creativity gifted students. Besides, efforts should be made to find ways to enhance the creativity of gifted students and to resolve the problem of decreasing creativity with student academic level increasing.

영재교육이 우리나라의 미래를 좌우한다는 생각은 이제 매우 설득력을 얻고 있지만 구체적인 학습자료와 이론이 여전히 부족한 상태이다(1999,김주봉). 수학 캠프의 활동에 관한 교육 프로그램은 더욱더 찾아보기 힘들다. 대구광역시 동부교육청 시범영재학급에서는 03년 1월 9일부터 11일까지 2박3일간 동부 계명대학교 자연과학부 백은관에서 영재캠프를 개최하였다. 이번 캠프는 주제탐구중심의 캠프로서 협동심과 창의력중심으로 전국 최초로 이루어졌고, 4학년 22명, 5학년 21명, 6학년 24명 총 67명과 담당장학사1명, 진행도우미 8명, 운영교수진 8명, 체험학습 강사10명 총94명이 참가하였다. 프로그램은 영재교육의 전문가인 교수와 초 중등 현직교사들에 의하여 운영되었고, 프로그램 계획 수립 및 진행총괄은 담당장학사와 본 연구자가 진행하였다. 학생들의 수준의 차이가 적지 않는 데다가 본 연구자는 4개월 동안 캠프를 준비하여 학생들로부터 캠프에 대한 소감을 통하여 결과가 긍정적인 내용이 많아서 매우 성공적인 캠프가 이루어 졌다고 생각한다. 본 고에서는 캠프일정과 운영. 교육프로그램, 주제탐구물 결과에 대하여 살펴볼 것이다.

창의성이 강조되는 시대에 영재 교육의 중요성은 점차 높아지고 있다. 그러나 정보 영재를 위한 연구는 수학이나 과학 영재에 비해 미미한 수준이며, 특히 초등 정보영재를 위한 프로그래밍 교육은 창의적 알고리즘을 개발하는 능력을 기르는 것보다 학습자의 수준에 맞지 않는 특정 프로그래밍 언어의 사용법이나 문법 위주의 교육에 치중하고 있다는 우려의 목소리가 높았다. 이에 본 논문에서는 초등 정보영재의 알고리즘적 사고력을 향상시키기 위한 실생활 중심의 컨텐츠를 제안하고자 한다. 초등학생의 생활과 밀접하게 연관된 주제를 선정하여 학습 동기를 유발하고, Polya의 문제해결모형을 토대로 스스로 이야기를 만들고 그 안에서 알고리즘을 찾아가는 과정을 통해 알고리즘적 사고력을 향상시킬 수 있도록 컨텐츠를 설계하였다.

In this paper, the researchers investigated the influence of graphing calculator in learning the concept of linear function for the gifted students. Elementary students who were taking a course in enrichment mathematics at Science Education Institute for the Gifted in Mokpo National University were selected for this study. The researchers analyzed students' processes of mathematical inference and conjecture, and students' algebraic description. We found the facts that the visualization using a graphing calculator and CBL is helpful to the gifted students in understanding concepts of liner function, finding the relationship between variables, analyzing and presupposing of graph. But, using graphing calculator can be a factor that disturbs learning of students who have too much of curiosity on graphing calculator.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the responses and the behavioral characteristics between mathematically promising students and normal students in solving open-ended problems. For this study, 55 mathematically promising students were selected from the Science Education Institute for the Gifted at Seoul National University of Education as well as 100 normal students from three 6th grade classes of a regular elementary school. The students were given 50 minutes to complete a written test consisting of five open-ended problems. A post-test interview was also conducted and added to the results of the written test. The conclusions of this study were summarized as follows: First, analysis and grouping problems are the most suitable in an open-ended problem study to stimulate the creativity of mathematically promising students. Second, open-ended problems are helpful for mathematically promising students' generative learning. The mathematically promising students had a tendency to find a variety of creative methods when solving open-ended problems. Third, mathematically promising students need to improve their ability to make-up new conditions and change the conditions to solve the problems. Fourth, various topics and subjects can be integrated into the classes for mathematically promising students. Fifth, the quality of students' former education and its effect on their ability to solve open-ended problems must be taken into consideration. Finally, a creative thinking class can be introduce to the general class. A number of normal students had creativity score similar to those of the mathematically promising students, suggesting that the introduction of a more challenging mathematics curriculum similar to that of the mathematically promising students into the general curriculum may be needed and possible.
