Mathematical giftedness of ten-year-old pupils – a comparison between students’ assessment and pupils' solution of a given geometric task
In this poster we will present assessment of mathematical giftedness of ten -year-old pupils with special interest in mathematics and their solutions of a geometric task. The research was carried out within an extracurricular activity at the Faculty of Education in Osijek with students in their final year of teacher studies and pupils in their fourth grade of elementary school, named Little School of Mathematics. This kind of cooperation between schools and the Faculty was initiated in 2003 by Margita Pavleković and it is carried out as a part of the elective course Mathematics and gifted pupils. Little School of Mathematics supports developing pupils’ mathematical competencies and provides students with an insight into recognizing, supporting and educating mathematically gifted pupils. Pavleković and associates developed an expert system named MathGift for detecting ten-year-old pupils potentially gifted in mathematics [Pavleković, M., Zekić-Sušac, M., Đurđević, I. (2010). Recognizing mathematically gifted children by using expert systems', teachers', and psychologists' estimations. Društvena istraživanja, 19 (3), 487- 510.]. By using this expert system, pupils are classified into one of the four categories of giftedness – from potentially gifted pupils to pupils with insufficiently developed mathematical skills. The results showed that the students ranked pupils lower in the categories than the expert system MathGift. Furthermore, a review of pupils’ solution to the given geometric task showed a connection between the established category of pupils’ giftedness and the accuracy of the solution.
