Sažetak
In this research, new media literacy skills of gifted students have been examined and analyzed. The quantitative method, i.e. the survey model was used in the research. The participants were gifted students in Bursa doing their 1st term of the 2016-2017 academic year. The sample of participants chosen by simple random sampling among the population comprises 64 gifted students in Bursa BTSO Kamil Tolon Science and Art Center.
According to the findings, it can be said that students’ media literacy skills are at a satisfactory level. Skills in which the students got the highest score are respectively visualization, judgement and common sense. Accordingly, gifted students are better at understanding information in a visual way, tend to use as many pictures, graphs and diagrams as possible and benefit from many resources in order to comprehend a topic better. Also, it can be said that they can understand when prejudgement or bias is taking place in media, and when they cannot resolve a problem they effectively make use of both the internet and social media so as to reach others. The more time the students spend on the internet, the more students’ online performance and their skills to improvise in another identity improve.
