In this study, we investigated the difference in the affective characteristics between science-gifted students and general students through the positive experiences about science (PES) index. We also explored ways to apply the characteristics of gifted classes suggeseted by the teachers of this study, which had a positive effect on science-gifted students, to general science classes. For this study, a PES survey was carried on middle school science-gifted students enrolled in the gifted education center in the central region and general middle school students in the same area who had no experience in gifted education. Based on the survey result, we conducted in-depth interviews with teachers, having teaching experience with both science-gifted and general students. The results revealed that science-gifted students showed a significantly higher PES index than general students in all five areas of PES. The area with the largest difference between the two groups was science-related self-concept and the smallest was science academic emotion. Teachers suggested ways to apply the characteristics of science-gifted classes to general science classes, such as organizing general science classes around inquiry activities, supporting class materials such as MBL or tablets, reconstructing the classes using materials reflecting students' needs, and changing the textbook content and narrative style, to induce students' interest and curiosity. Based on the study results, ways to enhance the PES through science classes for general students were proposed.

Science textbooks which were compiled by CHOSUN Government General are known as books which appeared after 'Science Textbook for Common School' (1923-) compiled by CHOSUN Government General which are almost similar to state authorized textbooks and are also known as leaving the effect on 'Science Textbook for Elementary School' (1931-) which were focused on the subjects being issued since then and 'Science Text for Elementary Course' (1942-) being compiled by the Education Ministry, However in this research it was found out that there were publications in 1911, 1913 and 1921 and they were harbingers for 'Science Textbook for Elementary School' 0931-). For this reason it was decided to report overall picture on the science textbooks being compiled by CHOSUN Government General. And it was possible to illustrate that such textbooks can be classified into following 5 periods ; The 1st period:The time for search--'Science Textbook for Students of Common school' 1911 compiled by CHOSUN Government General. The 2nd period:Commencing separate compilation--'Science Textbook for Common School' 1913 compiled by CHOSUN Government General. (The 2'nd period:Final Separate Compilation-- Reissue after corrections of 'Science Textbook for Common School' compiled by CHOSUN Government General, 1921.) The 3rd period:Same as the state authorized science textbook of Japan--' Science Textbook for Common School' compiled by CHOSUN Government General, totally 3 books 1923-. The 4th period:Separate compilation, centered on subjects--'Science Textbook for Elementary School' compiled by CHOSUN Government General, 1931-. (The 4'th period:Changers of subjects--'Science Text for Elementary School' compiled by CHOSUN Government General, 1937-. The 5th period:Matched to compiled by the Education Ministry--'Observation of Nature' compiled by CHOSUN Government General, 1942-'Science Text for Elementary School'(Writing laterally) 1943-.

This study aimed at identifying the differences between gifted students and general students in parental attitude toward science and trust perceived by them and their science self-efficacy. To achieve this purpose, a quantitative research was carried out for elementary gifted and general students. The results were as follows. Firstly, Gifted students recognized more positively their parents' attitude toward science than general students, and both of groups perceived more positively their mothers' than fathers'. Secondly, Parents' trust by gifted students was perceived more positively than by general students, but showed no difference between fathers and mothers. Thirdly, The average of science self-efficacy for gifted students was statistically meaningfully higher than for general students.

The purpose of this study was to compare Grit, failure tolerance and psychological well-being between elementary science gifted and general students. The subjects of this study were 48 science gifted students and 70 general students in the 5th and 6th grade of elementary school in Gyeonggi province. The results of this study were as follows: First, Grit, failure tolerance and psychological well-being of science gifted students were higher than those of the general students, there was a statistically significant difference. Second, science gifted students showed higher correlation between grit and failure tolerance, grit and psychological well-being than general students. Grit of science gifted students had a positive correlation with all sub-factors of academic failure tolerance and psychological well-being. In general students, there was a positive correlation with all sub-factors of Grit, academic failure tolerance, and psychological well-being except for the emotion sub-factor of academic failure tolerance. Thirdly, as a result of the regression analysis on the elements of failure tolerance affecting the Grit, science gifted students showed emotional factor but general students had behavioral factors. Also, as a sub-factor of psychological well-being on Grit, both science gifted and general students showed autonomy.

This study investigated whether there was a difference between general teaching efficacy and science teaching efficacy of preservice elementary teachers. And, the difference was also examined in the area of several variables of the preservice teachers, such as gender, the university majors, the high school majors, and grades. The results showed that a significant difference was not found between general teaching efficacy and science teaching efficacy. Teacher variables were found as the major factors to explain the difference. In case of male students who are majoring in science/math at university, and the students who majored in science/math at high school, science teaching efficacy was higher than general teaching efficacy. Whereas, in case of female students and nonscience majors at university and high school, science teaching efficacy was lower than their general teaching efficacy. Educational implications for preservice elementary teachers were discussed.

The present study examined gender differences between science-gifted students and general students in creative thinking, personality, environment and performance in science. Subjects were 171 eighth grade students, 66 gifted in science and 105 general students. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Stepwise Multiple Regression. Sex differences between the science-gifted and general students were found only in several subcategories of the dependent variables. The most critical predictors of creative performance in science were the title abstraction factor in gifted boys and general girls, and the resistance of enclosing factor in general boys.
