Abstract This symposium of chemistry education for the science gifted students is rooted in Chemistry Education Forum for chemistry teachers in six science high schools for the gifted. The Chemistry Education Forum provided the place where chemistry teachers in science high school for the gifted shared the information and experiences on curriculum, R&E programs and new teaching strategies for the gifted students. Practical discussions on running the education programs like informal activities, research programs and education contents were actively made. In this context, this report is intended to show the practical cases of running R&E programs in Daejeon Science High School for the Gifted and suggest the need for finding a new approach to R&E programs in science high school for the gifted. Many studies for the R&E program were published to evaluate the effect and running status of R&E programs in science high school based on statistical studies or qualitative surveys. But unlike previous studies, this report is based on experience in mentoring the R&E programs as a science high school teacher and intended to initiate the discussion on the running R&E programs supplying with actual R&E mentoring cases.
