Abstract:

 Gifted students differ from their peers with regard to some of their characteristics, which may affect their needs as well. This study aims to determine the extent human values are adopted by gifted students. Survey was used as the method in the study. 48 secondary school students attending the Gifted Education Application and Research Center UYEP participated in the study. The level of human value adoption was determined with the Moral Maturity Scale developed by Dilmaç 1999. Existence of any gender- and grade-based differences were examined by performing direct difference analyses. The results of the study revealed that the human value adoption levels of gifted students are high, but they do not differ by grade and gender. It may be helpful to teach gifted students with strong human value adoption through curriculums that allow them to reflect these values in their lives.

 Özel yetenekli öğrencilerin bazı özellikleri yaşıtlarına göre farklılık gösterebilir. Bu farklılıklar onların ihtiyaçlarını da etkileyebilir. Bu çalışmada özel yetenekli öğrencilerin insani değer düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Çalışmaya Üstün Yetenekliler Eğitimi Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezine ÜYEP devam eden ortaokul düzeyinde 48 öğrenci katılmıştır. Çalışmada Dilmaç 1999 tarafından geliştirilen Ahlaki Olgunluk Ölçeği ile insani değer düzeyi belirlenmiştir. Cinsiyete ve sınıf düzeyine göre farklara doğrudan fark analizleriyle bakılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları özel yetenekli öğrencilerin insani değer düzeylerinin yüksek olduğunu, ancak sınıf düzeyine ve cinsiyete göre farklılık göstermediğini ortaya koymuştur. Yüksek insani değer düzeyi bulunan özel yetenekli öğrencilerin, değerleri yaşantılarına yansıtacak biçimde eğitim programlarıyla buluşturulması öğrenciler için yararlı olabilir.
