Science Diary of a Gifted Student
Genc, Murat
Educational Research and Reviews, v8 n8 p390-395 Apr 2013
Learning processes of individuals in the education system have certain standards. Each individual is educated under the same conditions. Individual differences in the educational process are not taken into account in Turkey. These learning conditions do not vary from person to person. In this study, the lecture notes of a gifted student in (his) science classes are examined. The student was encouraged to keep a diary after his class for a whole semester. The student kept a diary about his Science and Technology classes and wrote down his opinions and what he had experienced during the classes. From the notes the student made, it is specified that the student followed science lessons in the first 15 min. In this 15 min period, the student was not eager to attend the lesson and speak. In the remaining time, he was engaged in what his friends were doing. Besides, he explored the equipment in the laboratory and observed the teacher.
