Özet:

 


Many educational tools that are recommended for the training of normal students are often encountered in programs that do not work very well and are subsequently abandoned. One of the important points that program developers should now consider is that teaching tools are presented in accordance with individual differences. It is seen that the instructional approach suggested as argument-based learning is tried to be applied in Turkey. However, the tools used are the basic argumentation tools. It has been argued in this study that the use of "thoughtexperiment", one of the advanced argumentation tools, is appropriate for gifted students rather than normal students. The evidence-based data on thought experiments in which important scientists used in the history of science rather limited. In this study, the thought experiments are explained and the arguments about why the thought experiments should be used in gifted education are presented by providing information about important thought experiments and types.
