Abstract
In this study, it was aimed to determine teachers' views, perceptions and training needs regarding the identification and education of gifted and talented students. By determining the opinions of teachers, new and functional suggestions regarding the identification and education processes of gifted students were presented. 358 teachers working in Sakarya province participated in the study. Frequency analysis and descriptive statistics methods were used in the statistical analysis of the research. According to the results of the study, it was determined that teachers need training on "identifying gifted students", "choosing appropriate teaching methods for gifted students" and "determining the learning needs of gifted students". When the opinions of the teachers regarding the education of gifted students were examined, it was seen that they expressed opinions on giving more space to gifted students in education policies, enriching BILSEMs, (science and art education center) and constantly renewing themselves in this field. Under the sub-heading of teachers' perceptions of gifted students, it was determined that teachers' perceptions of the characteristics of gifted students in general were above average.
