The perceptions of the gifted students about the different environments
in which they are educated are important for creating the right learning
environments for them. Thus, the aim of this study is to map the perceptions of
gifted students about school and SAC through metaphors. Phenomenological model,
among qualitative research models, was used in the study. This research was
carried out with 63 students who were determined as gifted and registered in
the Science and Art Center in Siirt province during the spring semester of 2017-2018
academic year. In order to elicit students’ perceptions about concepts of “School” and
“SAC”, a form with the statements “School is like………., because……….” and “ SAC
is like………., because……….” was distributed to the students. Content analysis was
used to analyze the data. Gifted students
produced 30 different metaphors related to the concept of “school” and 31
different metaphors related to “SAC” concept.
