The purpose of this study was to compare problem finding ability, creative thinking ability, creative tendency, and science process skill between the scientifically gifted students and the general students. For this study, problem finding ability test, integrating creativity test, and science process skill test were conducted to the elementary gifted students (n=95) in science and the general students (n=149) at the same school district. The results of this study were as follows: The mean scores of problem finding, creative thinking, creative tendency, and science process skill of the gifted students were statistically higher than the general students. The problem finding ability had partially weak correlation with sub-domains of the creative thinking ability, creative tendency, and science process skill. Findings suggest that there are needs of further study about factors affecting problem finding and considering the degree of structure of problem situation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between the learning styles and science process skills of students of the gifted class in elementary school. Subjects were forty-eight students of the gifted class who are in the fifth grade studying at the gifted class of S elementary school in Bucheon, M and Y elementary school in Incheon on learning styles and science process skills of students. Learning Style Profile (LSP) was used as instrument to survey learning style of students of the gifted class which was developed by NASSP, and consists of four categories (cognitive skills, perceptual response, orientation and teaming preferences) and twenty-four subscales. The results of this study were as follows: 1. In the learning styles test, students of the gifted class have higher scores of spatial skill, sequential processing skill, persistence orientation, manipulative preference, temperature preference and afternoon preference than general class students, but they have lower scores of discrimination skill and lighting preference, and there were statistically significant difference. 2. In science process skills test, there were statistically significant difference between students of the gifted class and general students. 3. In the correlation between the learning styles and science process skills, there was positive correlation of observing skill with spatial skill and manipulate skill of cognitive skill domain. For classifying skill, there was positive correlation with visual perceptual response, but was negative correlations with auditory and emotive perceptual response of perceptual response domain and with evening preference and verbal risk orientation of study preference domain. For measuring skill, there was positive correlation with sequential processing skill of cognitive skill domain. For formulating hypotheses, there was controlling variables, there was positive correlation with sequential processing skill and simultaneous processing skill of cognitive skill domain, and with verbal-spatial preference and early morning study preference of study preference domain. When planning and managing the gifted class, it will be beneficial and effective to consider the meaningful relations between the elements of loaming style and science process skills in order to improve science process skills.

중 고등학교 현장 과학 교사들을 대상으로 7차 교육과정의 탐구 과정 요소의 활용 정도와 가설에 대한 교사들의 인식을 알아보기 위해 설문조사를 실사하였다. 조사 결과 교사들은 자료해석을 가장 많이 활용하였으며 다음으로 결론 도출을 많이 활용하였다. 가장 활용 빈도가 낮은 것은 가설 설정이었으며 다음으로는 자료 변환이었다. 이러한 결과와 더불어 교사들이 가장 활용하기 힘들다고 응답한 탐구 과정 요소는 가설 설정이었으며 자료 변환, 변인 통제가 그 뒤를 이었다. 가설 설정은 현장에서 활용 빈도가 가장 낮으며 교사들이 가장 활용하기 힘들어하는 탐구 과정 요소로 나타났다. 가설에 대한 교사들의 인식 조사 결과 많은 교사들(63.1%)이 가설에 대해 바르게 진술하였으나, 구체적인 문제 상황에서 가설을 바르게 선택하는 교사의 비율(5.0%)은 매우 낮게 나타났다. 현장에서 가설 설정 수업의 가능성에 대한 교사들의 인식 조사 결과 90%이상의 교사들은 중학교 이상에서 가설 설정 수업이 가능하다고 보았다. 그러나 실제로 과학교사들은 가설 설정을 현장의 과학 수업에 활용하는 것을 어려워하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이러한 결과는 현재 중등학교 현장에서 거의 활용되지 않고 있는 가설 설정 관련 수업이 가설에 대한 적절한 정의와 수업 전략이 주어진다면 가능하다는 것을 의미한다.
