Giriş: Özel yetenekli çocukların genel eğitim sınıflarında uygulanmakta olan müfredattan en yüksek düzeyde yararlanabilmeleri için zaman içerisinde özel yetenekli öğrencilerin eğitimlerinde farklılaştırmaya gidilmesinin gerekliliği önem kazanmıştır. Özel yetenekli öğrencilerin desteklenmesi için belirtilen stratejilerin dışında ihtiyaçlarını desteklemek amacıyla üniversiteler bünyesinde kurulan araştırma ve geliştirme merkezleri vardır. Bu araştırmada 17 farklı özel yetenekli öğrenciler eğitim ve araştırma merkezlerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Bu araştırma, betimsel bir durum saptaması niteliğinde olduğu için araştırmada veri toplama yöntemi olarak doküman analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır. 17 özel yetenek merkezinin internet sitesi belirli temalarla içerik analiziyle incelenmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında elde edilen veriler içerik analiziyle beraber betimsel analiz yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Merkezlerin internet sitelerinde en çok yer alan bilgilerin merkezin program ve müfredat modelleri, yürüttükleri faaliyetler olduğu görülmektedir. Merkezlerin internet sitelerinde en az yer alan bilgilerin ise merkeze kabul şartlarının olduğu görülmektedir. Özel yetenek merkezlerinde çalışan personelin en fazla doktora düzeyinde olduğu, en az ise yüksek lisans öğrencisi olduğu görülmektedir. Bununla beraber merkezlerin maddi destek kaynaklarının en çok belirli fonlar olduğu en az ise devlet desteği olduğu görülmektedir. Öğrenci kabul şartlarına yer veren merkezlerin en çok kendilerine özgü bir değerlendirme sistemi kullandıkları görülmektedir.
Tartışma: Alanyazın incelendiği zaman benzer bir çalışmaya rastlanmamıştır. Çalışmanın bulgularından yola çıkılarak gelecek araştırmalarda Avrupa’da yer alan özel yetenekliler merkezleriyle diğer ülkelerdeki merkezler karşılaştırılarak incelemeler yapılabilir ve bu incelemenin içerisine ülkelerin eğitim sistemleri dahil edilerek genişletilebilir.

Comparative Analysis of Gifted Centers

Introduction: Differentiation is crucial for gifted students to benefit fully from the advanced curriculum in general education. Along with the strategies used in gifted education, universities have established research and development centers to meet their unique needs. The aim of this study was to examine 17 different gifted education and research centers.
Method: As this research is a descriptive case study, the data collection method employed was document analysis. The websites of 17 gifted centers were thoroughly examined using content analysis, focusing on specific themes. The data obtained within the scope of this research were analyzed using both descriptive and content analysis methods.
Findings: It was found that the websites of the centers mainly provide details about the center's program, curriculum models, and activities. However, information regarding admission criteria is less frequently available on these websites. Additionally, the majority of personnel in gifted centers are doctoral students, with a smaller proportion of master's students. When it comes to financial support, centers primarily rely on specific funds, with minimal state support. Moreover, centers that specify student admission requirements often adopt a unique evaluation system.
Discussion: When the literature was examined, no similar study was found. Based on the findings of the study, future studies can be conducted by comparing the gifted centers in Europe with the centers in other countries and can be expanded by including the education systems of the countries in this study.
