The object of this study is to compare and analyze mathematically gifted and non-gifted elementary students in the family system and career attitude maturity, understand the characteristics of the former, and provide assistance for career education for both groups. The subjects include 145 mathematically gifted elementary students (73 fifth graders, 72 sixth graders) and 167 non-gifted students (78 fifth graders, 89 sixth graders) in G educational agencies. Materials for the experiment include amended family system test and career attitude maturity test. While t-test was conducted to solve the first research question, Pearson's correlation analysis was performed to solve the other one. The research findings were as follows: First, mathematically gifted elementary students, compared to non-gifted students, turned out to have higher rates of the family system and career attitude maturity rate and showed statistically meaningful positive relationship. Second, the lower components of the family system and career attitude maturity, there seems to be no relationship between family-flexibility and finality. However, among other components, there was a level of significance at 5% which shows statistically meaningful positive relationship. In summary, this found that the family system is able to have an effect on the career attitude maturity for both mathematically gifted elementary students and non-gifted students. Hence, it need to be considered the components of family system when the teacher guides mathematically gifted elementary students and non-gifted students associated with their career.

Today's gifted students will be tomorrow's leaders in goverment, economies, technology, sciences, and all other areas of human endeavor. these students have a right to partcipate in school programs that will help them reach their special potentions. The school have on obligation to provide flexible and effective programs for gifted. In this study is to know in broad generalities for identifying methods mathematics gifted, the instructional environment, teaching methods in the regular classroom, enrichment program contents, evaluating student and program contents.

The purpose of this study is, targeting 5th and 6th grades mathematically gifted elementary students, to analyze the effect of independent study project learning on self-directed learning ability and mathematical self-efficacy, and based on the results, examine the implications that independent study project learning has in special education for the gifted. In order to solve the study problems, 5th grade mathematically gifted elementary students(40) and 6th grade mathematically gifted elementary students(39) who had passed the selection criteria of D education institute for the gifted and had been receiving special education for the gifted were selected. The study results are as below. First, although self-directed learning ability had no significant difference at p<0.05, it statistically had some differences in averages between pre-test and post-test results. Second, although mathematical self-efficacy had no significant difference at p<0.05, it statistically had some differences in averages between pre-test and post-test results. Third, in the aspects of self-directed learning ability and mathematical self-efficacy, independent study project learning had a more positive effect on 5th grade mathematically gifted elementary students than 6th grade mathematically gifted elementary students. In addition, it had significant differences in 'the level of mathematical tasks', a sub-level of mathematical self-efficacy, and 'the openness of learning', 'the initiative of learning', and 'a sense of responsibility for learning', sub-levels of self-directed learning ability. These results imply that independent study project learning has a positive effect on self-directed learning ability and mathematical self-efficacy of mathematically gifted elementary students so that it could be meaningfully used as a teaching method for special education for the gifted at educational sites of independent study project learning.

It is well-known that every learner has his/her own learning style and the learning style has a great effect on his/her learning characteristics, processes and achievements. This study aims to induce some implications for designing the gifted mathematics programs which go with gifted students' learning styles. To do this, we applied the gifted mathematics program of nine lessons to 52 third grade gifted students and examined the characteristics of the programs according Kolb's learning style. To investigate the effect of the program, the pretest and posttest for applying the programs were taken and the results of two tests were analysed by t-test. As a result, the students of diverging style increased and the ones of converging style decreased, while there is little change in the accommodating style and the assimilating style. It was also shown that the average of the concrete experience(CE) of the subjects has increased significantly. This study also contains some pedagogical implications based on discussing about the results of analysis.

The main aim of this study is to find out whether an elementary school's science-invention program for gifted pupils has an effect on their attitude towards science-engineering sector or related careers for their future. For hypothesis testing, a class for gifted pupils of 6th grade in D elementary school, J elementary school is chosen. The experiment was implemented 12 times during the period. Major findings were as follows. In career maturity, there weren't statistically meaningful differences found between experimental and controlled group as a result of invention program. This result showed that the invention program is not appropriate to promote the career maturity. However, there were still some evidence of change in their attitudes to science-engineering. Based on the result, an invention program which fails to improve career maturity should be amended.

The researcher conducts the following research to correctly identify the gifted children of science information. First, the researcher makes sufficient theoretic research on gifted children for the sake of definition and identification of the gifted children of information science, and reconstructed the identification principles, factors and procedures of the gifted children of information science on the basis of those of the gifted children of math and science the theories of a number of scholars and presented new methods of identifying new gifted children of information science. Second, the researcher set the identification procedures of the gifted children of information science and the relevant content and conducted the identification of gifted children through the observation and evaluation of sixth graders through three stages. Third, the researcher compares and analyzed the selected gifted children based on the identification procedures and ordinary groups of students excellent in math and science in terms of task achievement and looked into validity.

This study aims to investigate the differences between gifted students and general students in elementary school by comparing their attribution tendency and self-regulated learning strategy and verify the attribution tendency and self-regulated learning strategy of gifted students in elementary school. The subjects of this study were 105 gifted students in the fifth and sixth grades from the gifted education center and 105 general students in the fifth and sixth grades. The study findings were as follows: First, The gifted students showed a higher score on the success attribution while the general students showed a higher score on the failure attribution Second, the gifted students showed a higher score on all over the self-regulated learning strategy with its subordinate factors. Third, the gifted students in humanity showed a higher score on the control factor of cognitive strategy, the gifted students in mathematics on the action control factor of motive strategy and the gifted students in science on the other subordinate factors and all over the self-regulated learning strategy. Fourth, the boys showed a higher score on the factor of action control while the girls on all the other subordinate factors and all over the self-regulated learning strategy.

일반적으로 영재교육을 실시함에 있어서 가장 먼저 선행되어야 할 것은 영재아 판별기준을 정해 학생선발과정을 운영하는 것과 실제 가르칠 교육내용을 구체적으로 정의하여 교재를 개발하는 것이다. 특히, 최근에 각광받고 있는 정보과학 분야의 영재교육에 대한 연구는 이제 시작단계에 불과하여 서로 다른 이론적 근거와 주관적인 기준에 따라 전국의 과학연재교육센터들을 중심으로 다양한 논의가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 아주대학교 과학영재교육센터에서 초등학교 4학년부터 중학교 3학년까지의 학생들을 대상으로 운영되고 있는 정보과학 영재교육 프로그램을 자세히 소개함으로써, 앞으로 정보과학 분야의 영재교육을 위한 구체적인 영재판별기준과 학생선발절차는 물론 체계적인 교육과정 및 교과목의 개발을 위한 하나의 실례로써 소개하고자 한다.
