Abstract

The purpose of the study was to find out the usefulness of teachers' recommendation in selecting gifted students. For the study 87 teachers teaching 4th grade students from 20 elementary schools in the area of Incheon, 103 gifted students who were recommended by teacher, and 65 gifted students who were not recommended by teacher participated. To measure their cognitive ability, Raven intelligence test, creative problem solving test in science, and TTCT were used. In addition, learning methods, motives for achievement, faith in academic ability, problem solving tendency, and assignment preferences were assessed to find out their affective qualities. The results were as follows. First, the students who were recommended by teachers were highly advanced in both cognitive and affective aspects related to giftedness compared to non recommended students. Second, there were no significant differences both in the cognitive and affective aspects among the students recommended by teachers whether they passed the second step(test for giftedness) and the third step(test for academic aptitude) or not. Third, the discriminant analysis showed $70{\sim}80$ percent accuracy on teacher recommendation in identifying gifted students. The implication of the study related to teacher recommendation and future direction on identification of gifted students were discussed in depth.

이 연구는 영재교육 대상자 선발에서 교사 추천의 효용성을 알아보기 위해 추천 학생과 미추천 학생이 영재로 선발된 정도와 인지적 정의적 영재 관련 특성은 어떠한 차이가 있는 지를 분석하였다. 인천광역시 관내 20개 초등학교의 6학년 지도 교사 87명과 위 학교의 6학년 중 추천 학생 103명과 미추천 학생 65명을 연구대상으로 하였다. 연구대상 학생의 지능, 과학 창의적 문제해결력, 창의성, 학습방법, 성취동기, 학업능력에 대한 신념, 문제해결 성향 및 과제선호도를 조사하여 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교사의 추천 유무에 따라 학생의 영재 관련 특성은 유의미한 차이가 있었으며, 둘째, 영재 선발 2단계(영재성 검사)와 3단계(학문적성 검사)를 통과한 학생과 탈락한 학생의 영재 관련 특성은 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 셋째, 교사 추천은 영재 선발에서 $70{\sim}80%$의 판별 적중률이 있는 것으로 나타났다.
