Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of writing education carried out according to the self-regulation strategy development model on the self-regulation writing skills, self-efficacy perceptions, and creative thinking skills of gifted and talented students. In this study, a pre-test and post-test design with a control group was utilized, which is among the experimental designs. The study group consisted of 42 students aged 10-11 years who were diagnosed as gifted and talented and were studying at the same science and art center in Istanbul. In this research, the Self-Regulated Writing Scale, Self-Efficacy Writing Scale, and Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking Figural Form A were applied. Information about the scales is presented. Within the scope of the study, a 6-stage self-regulated strategy development model was enhanced with Web 2.0 digital tools for gifted and talented students. The research showed that writing instruction focused on the creation of self-regulation strategies reinforced with Web 2.0 resources had a beneficial impact on self-regulation writing skills, perceptions of self-efficacy, and the creative thinking skills of gifted and talented students.
