이 연구의 목적은 초등학교 교사들의 영재교육에 대한 현황과 인식을
알아보기 위한 것으로, 이를 위해 영재교육에 대한 일반적 인식, 영재의
특성, 영재의 판별, 영재교육 프로그램, 그리고 영재 담당교사에 대한 인
식을 설문을 통하여 분석하였다. 설문 분석 결과 초등학교 교사들의 영재
교육에 대한 인식은 대체로 긍정적이었으나, 세부적인 내용에 대한 인식
은 낮은 편이었으며, 영재의 지적 특성에 대한 인식은 높았으나, 영재의
정서적 특성에 대한 인식은 낮았다. 그리고 영재의 조기판별에 대한 인식
은 높았으나, 영재의 판별 기준에 대한 인식이나 판별 능력은 낮은 편이
었다. 또한 영재 프로그램에 대한 인식은 접해본 경험 부족으로 인해 매
우 낮았으며, 영재 담당 교사 연수에 대한 인식은 높았으나, 영재 담당 교
사에 대한 의향은 매우 낮았다. 이로써 영재교육에 대한 이론적 인식은
보통이나 긍정적인 수준이었지만 실천적 인식은 영재교육에 대한 열악한
재정적, 행정적 환경으로 인해 낮은 수준에 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연
구는 영재교육에 대한 초등의 현실을 파악하고, 이를 기초로 교사들의 영
재교육에 대한 올바른 인식을 형성하기 위한 방향을 모색하는 데 그 의의
가 있다.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic information on the current status
of elementary school teachers' perception of gifted education. For this purpose, this
study will analyze elementary school teachers' perception of the gifted education
(i.e., general perception of gifted education, characteristics of gifted children,
identification of gifted children, programs for gifted education, and teachers of
gifted education).
A questionnaire survey was used for the purpose and research questions of this
study. The questionnaire used in this study was constructed by taking into
account the results of surveys conducted in previous studies and the literature on
gifted education.
Before conducting the research, a preliminary inquiry was made to identify
problems that may occur while the subjects were participating in the survey, as
well as to determine the appropriateness of the questionnaire and the amount of
time needed. The preliminary inquiry was conducted with ten randomly selected
elementary school teachers who did not participate as subjects in the actual
research. The results were later used as initial data for the actual research.
The subjects of this study were teachers who were teaching in 8 elementary
schools under each office of education in Seoul. This process was conducted for
180 elementary school teachers from April to May 2004. The results were
analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) Ver. 10.1, a software
program for statistical research.
After the data were analyzed, the following conclusions were arrived at:
1. The result of the general perception of gifted education by elementary school
teachers were positive and reasonably high. The level of their perception of
detailed information or knowledge, however, was relatively low.
2. As for their perceptions of the emotional characteristics of gifted children, the
results showed a low level of understanding of the characteristics of gifted
children.
3. As for their perceptions of identification of gifted children, the results
showed a high level of understanding of the appropriate time to provide
special education to gifted children and of the methods to identify such. On
the other hand, their understanding of the identification of gifted children in
an actual class was poor.
4. The respondents' level of perceptions of programs for gifted education was
very low since many subjects did not have any experiences with such
programs.
5. The results showed a very positive response to receiving training on gifted
education, though they were very reluctant to be assigned as teachers of
gifted education because of the excessive work that is associated with such
and their lack of capability in handling gifted children.
