Future leaders of South Korea's scientific community presented the research achievements they have conducted at Jeonbuk National University (President Yang Obong).
According to the Jeonbuk National University Science Gifted Education Center (Director Professor Jung Deokho) on the 9th, a performance presentation contest was held on the 7th at the College of Education Science Building of Jeonbuk National University for 55 elementary school students selected for the 'Jeonbuk Science Dream Tree Nurturing Education'.
This education program was commissioned by the Jeonbuk Lifelong Education Scholarship Promotion Foundation and implemented by the Jeonbuk National University Science Gifted Education Center. From May to September, it was conducted in four fields: mathematics, biology, geology, and IT convergence for local elementary school students.

The education included weekend and summer vacation intensive courses, outdoor survey activities, and was designed to encourage students interested in mathematics and science to pursue their dreams as future scientific talents.
Students received education in each field: ▲Mathematics by Professor Kim Daeyeol on 'Repeated Matrix Multiplication' ▲Biology by Professor Emeritus Kim Iksoo on 'Conservation of the Jeonjucheon Ecosystem' ▲Geology by Professor Emeritus Oh Changhwan on 'Geological History of the Korean Peninsula and Geology of Jeonbuk'.
In the IT convergence field, students directly experienced drone swarm flight using block coding through collaboration with the SW-Centered University Project Group, providing an opportunity to broaden their perspective on the drone industry.
Director Jung Deokho of the Science Gifted Education Center said, "Through the Jeonbuk Science Dream Tree Nurturing Education, we will do our best to help students interested in mathematics and science develop their talents and realize their dreams by exposing them to various topics they have never experienced before."
Meanwhile, the Science Gifted Education Center is the representative institution for science gifted education in the Jeonbuk region, operating for 27 years. It was established in 1998 as the 'Jeonbuk National University Science Gifted Education Center' within the Institute of Science Education at the College of Education, Jeonbuk National University, and was promoted to the 'Science Gifted Education Center' in 2002. A total of 5,392 students have completed the program to date.
