Analytical-synthetic modeling, creativity, data mining, educational methods, giftedness, science education

The basis of the study is the Analytical-synthetic model of teacher creativity in connection to the selection of teaching methods for gifted students. The use of our model can improve the efficiency of the development of giftedness. The model emphasizes the position of teacher creativity in the selection of teaching methods. Our research data show the influence of selected teaching methods on the effective development of giftedness. The following theoretical and empirical research methods have been used in our study: data mining, modeling, design-based research. The aim of this modeling is to offer a rounded-off structure of information to students, which can be accepted within the scope of a logical system of science without any necessary simplification. The results of our research can be used in practice and should be implemented in the professional development of science teachers.
