Values Education of Gifted/Talented Students in Social Studies Class
Abstract
Values education is crucial in eliminating social distortions, and schools are making serious efforts to foster character development in students. While gifted individuals in society often come to mind with the potential to achieve success in every field, each gifted individual has different intelligence levels and developmental areas. It is crucial to provide gifted students with values education and examine the effects of this education in social studies classes. Within the scope of the 2023 Social Studies Curriculum at BİLSEM, the goal is to raise awareness among gifted students in the 5th and 6th grades regarding the values of "Aesthetics and Sensitivity to Cultural Heritage" in the 5th grade and "Cultural Heritage" in the 6th grade. This study aims to examine the extent to which gifted/specially gifted students acquire values such as aesthetics and sensitivity to cultural heritage in the 5th and 6th grade social studies classes. A part-time interview formula was conveyed with the data of the research. The research is a descriptive study in the screening model and was carried out with qualitative method. The study concluded that gifted students' perceptions of values have improved. Activities implemented in values education have a positive impact on the acquisition of values. The use of activities in the acquisition of values is recommended. Studies on values education can be conducted with gifted students who appear to have a high perception of values. In-depth research can be conducted using methods such as keeping a diary to document students' feelings and thoughts during the periods in which the activities were implemented.
