They asked state administrators of special education and gifted education programs to complete an online survey and reviewed state gifted and special legislation and policy documents.  The survey focused on the inclusion of twice-exceptional students in state gifted and special education legislation and policy.]]> 2018-10-11 04:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291555932 dominiquejones64 https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291556315 - The lack of an agreed-upon definition

- Most states do not have legislation, policy, or initiatives focusing on twice-exceptional learners.]]> 2018-10-11 04:46:48 UTC https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291556747 dominiquejones64 https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291556858 Roberts et al. (2015) developed four needs statements based on the results of the survey:
- There is a need for legislation and policy related to twice-exceptional students. 
- It would be informative to have specific definitions and characteristics for the various combinations of gifts and disabilities. 
- Collaboration among general, gifted, and special education professionals is needed. - - Models for initiatives related to twice exceptionality are available and need to be implemented. ]]> 2018-10-11 04:48:00 UTC https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291556858 dominiquejones64 https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291558037 refers to gifted children who have some form of disability.]]> 2018-10-11 04:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291558037 dominiquejones64 https://padlet.com/dominiquejones64/yorbl0o66ap6/wish/291999878 Outlining legislation and policy currently in place regarding twice-exceptional children and young people.

Various disability and gifted combinations make descriptions of twice exceptionality complicated but not impossible.
- Legislation, teacher preparation programs, parameters of eligibility, and program accountability all flow from definition.
- Recognition of the importance of identifying twice-exceptional students should be a collaborative effort including general education, gifted education, and special education communities.
