This paper suggested a scientific research based mentoring model(SRMM) for the gifted in scienceeducation. SRMM for the gifted focused on experiment-based scientific proceses in laboratory andresearch experiences of scientists. The SRMM has six phases such as introducing, exploring, planning,performing, verifying and concluding, which is final phase and includes discussing about results,presenting its implications and writing paper. The model can facilitate scientifically gifted students toconstruct scientific knowledges and comprehension of laboratory practice through concrete experimentalexperiences. It can motivate them to be able to use and extend scientific knowledges and laboratoryexperiences. Challenging tasks and feedback at the requisite stage of each phases can improveinstructional effectiveness. The educational potentials of SRMM were examined by applying to thegifted and talented students of Science Education Institute for the Gifted, Kongju National University,Korea. The educational program using SRMM was applied in biology and its topic was “The Effectsof Aqueous Extracts from Eupatorium rugosum Houtt. on Early Protein Pattern of Lettuces andRadishes”. Its application suggested that the educational program using SRMM can be effective for thescientifically gifted students.
