Panel: Navigating Twice-Exceptionality: Supporting Adolescent Students in Secondary and Post-Secondary Settings

Twice exceptional students possess both high abilities and disabilities, making their educational experience complex and often misunderstood. This panel will bring together experts in gifted education, special education, and teacher preparation to discuss the impact of twice exceptionality on adolescent students. The session will also delve into the essential role of teacher preparation in fostering an inclusive and supportive environment. Participants will gain insights into effective strategies for supporting 2e students and the importance of preparing teachers to address their unique needs.
