Abstract (2. Language):
It is necessary to pay attention to education of gifted students in science because of the significant benefit of
science for social development in a very competitive globalized environment. Gifted students have got specific
educational needs. Family and science teachers play a crucial role in the education of gifted students. Current
research has shown that special teacher professional competencies are important for recognizing and
development of giftedness. Using appropriate teaching methods will enable the gifted students to grow to their
highest potential. Innovative educational methods for motivation and development of gifted students are to be
implemented in teacher professional training. We are presenting research findings of students’ educational
preferences and examples of concrete suitable teaching/learning methods based on experimentation for gifted
students: inquiry-based science education, family science education, ICT-based collaborative education, and
problem learning tasks. These teaching/learning methods have to be implemented in continuous professional
development of science teachers.
