II. The Development of Gifted Education
in Korea
19
Korean educators used to
• Take one-size-fits-all approach.• Emphasize equality and sameness as very
important societal values to keep so that treating students differently is a taboo.
• Believe in efforts more than abilities of students.• Think that able teachers are those who know what
to teach rather than how to teach.

Ⅰ
1 Magic of sight We can do a Magic SHOW with polarization of light.
2Twinkle twinkle
kaleidoscope
Before 300 years, people’s hobby was making a
kaleidoscope, we will make a kaleidoscope and
understand reflection of light.
3
Secret of elliptical
architecture
Reflection of sound, there is secret in elliptical
architecture. Let’s see our funny face with concave
and convex mirror and discuss about the reflection!
4Bent chopsticks
in the water
Refraction experiments with laser, we can
explain about refraction of light.
5
Making a
telescope by
myself
With two convex lenses, we can make the Kepler’s
telescope by ourselves.
6Beautiful optical
fiber lamp
There is common principle of light in Diamond,
endoscope and optical fiber. We can understand total
refraction and make a beautiful optical fiber lamp.

Bottle
Height of water in Bottle, we can make a
beautiful sound changing.
5Wave in water and
one slit experiment.Let’s see the diffraction of water and light.
6Photoelectric effect
and Nobel prize.
With ultraviolet light, Let’s see marks or
paintings for preventing a counterfeiting
bills. We can understand Photoelectric
effect of Einstein.
