Description
Many changes have occurred in our theoretical and practical understanding of the twice-exceptional student since approximately 30 years ago when a federal grant established the first programs for students who were referred to as gifted/handicapped. We now refer to those same gifted students who have learning and behavioral issues as twice-exceptional. A great deal of research has been conducted and a variety of programs and schools has been developed. The presenters discuss current research and various successful programming options. There is also a discussion of future needs and directions.
