영재교육의 양적인 확장과 함께 과학영재학교의 증가를 고려할 때, 고등학생 영재를 대상으로 하는 적절한 수학 수업 방법을 모색하는 것은 중요한 문제이다. 특히 수학적 창의성을 중요한 교육 목표로 제시하는 현재의 수학 교육의 흐름에 비추어 볼 때, 과학영재학교의 수학 수업에서 교사 위주의 지식 전달 방식의 수업이 아닌 학생 중심의 토론식 수업이 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 과학영재학교의 정규 수학 수업에서 적용할 수 있는 예습 기반 토론 수업모형을 설계하고 적용하였다. 연구에 참여한 학생들은 토론을 위한 예습 활동에 많은 부담을 가지면서도 토론 활동이 기존의 강의식 수업보다 수학적으로 의미 있는 경험이었다고 평가하였다. 이러한 연구 결과로부터 예습 기반 토론 수업모형이 과학영재학교 정규 수학 수업에서 의미있게 적용될 수 있다는 시사점을 도출하였다.

The purpose of this work is to investigate pre-service elementary teachers' belief in science gifted education. To do that, from September to November 2012, this research had been conducted with 42 students who were in the third year of P University of Education. The conclusions of this work are presented as follows: First, the pre-service elementary teachers considered exploration ability to be the most important talent for the gifted students in science, and chose task commitment as the next most important. They regarded intelligent ability and leadership ability as the relatively less important. Secondly, regarding the most important tool in choosing scientifically gifted students, the pre-service elementary teachers preferred creativity test. It was found that they considered the intelligence test and academic achievements, which require intelligent ability, to be the less important. Thirdly, regarding the special knowledge related to science gifted education, the pre-service elementary teachers considered pedagogical knowledge about the gifted to be the most important. Fourthly, regarding a class type for gifted students in science, the pre-service elementary teachers most preferred project learning. Project learning is a learning method in which students choose an interesting problem and solve the problem in cooperation with group members. It is the most widely used exploration class in gifted education. It is in the same context as the result that exploration ability is the most important factor to elementary gifted students in science. This work revealed that, with regard to a talent for the gifted in science, judgment of the gifted in science and science gifted education, the potential ability and affective ability of gifted students are considered to be more important than their intelligent ability. Therefore, it was analyzed that pre-service elementary teachers' belief in the gifted students in science is almost consistent with the recent trend of gifted education.
