In an educational system founded on rigid standards and categories, students who demonstrate a very specific manifestation of intelligence flourish, while those who deviate tend to fall between the cracks. Too often, talents and interests that do not align with classroom conventions are left unrecognized and unexplored in children with extraordinary potential but little opportunity. For twice-exceptional (2e) children, who have extraordinary strengths coupled with learning difficulties, the problem is compounded by the paradoxical nature of their intellect and an unbending system, ill-equipped to cater to their unique learning needs.

Twice Exceptional: Supporting and Educating Bright and Creative Students with Learning Difficulties provides cutting-edge, evidence-based approaches to creating an environment where twice-exceptional students can thrive. Viewing the 2e student as neither exclusively disabled nor exclusively gifted, but, rather, as a dynamic interaction of both, leading experts offer holistic insight into identification, social-emotional development, advocacy, and support for 2e students. With chapters focusing on special populations (including autism, dyslexia, and ADHD) as well as the intersection of race and 2e, this book highlights practical recommendations for school and social contexts. In expounding the unique challenges faced by the 2e population, Twice Exceptional makes a case for greater flexibility in our approach to education and a wider notion of what it means to be academically successful.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The content of this book will be of value to all those working with students whose learning profile may be indicative of 2E." -- Special Educational Needs Magazine

"Scott Barry Kauffman has revitalized the ongoing intellectual discourse on twice exceptionality, bringing great minds together in this useful and timely anthology."
--Kiesa Kay, BSJ, MA, ACFI; editor of Uniquely Gifted: Identifying and Meeting the Needs of the Twice Exceptional Student

"Finally, an excellent thorough science based guide for the parents, teachers and therapists of the one in five children who struggle with a learning disability and have gifted potential. Scott Barry kaufman has assembled the worlds experts in twice exceptional children to inform the way families and schools can educate with an eye towards maximizing potential and minimizing struggle. A long needed and excellent resource." --Gail Saltz, MD, Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry, The New York Presbyterian Hospital, Weill Cornell School of Medicine; author of The Power of Different: The Link Between Disorder and Genius

"When it comes to understanding people who learn differently, Twice Exceptionality (2e) is perhaps one of the newest and most important concepts available to us right now. In recent years, Scott Barry Kaufman has emerged as one of the nation's most potent voices for those who learn differently, so it is fitting that through his unique lens and under his leadership, this first of its kind volume would find its way to our bookshelves. He has thoughtfully assembled some of the most essential minds from the fields of giftedness and intelligence to help us better understand 2e people of all ages and backgrounds.

And, in a world where multiple intelligences inevitably converge with multiple identities, this diverse compendium on Twice Exceptionality is important and timely reading that will help steer educators, families, advocates, policy makers and the generally curious into a place of deeper compassion for those who learn differently-something we especially need as we move into the next decade of the 21st century." --Marc Smolowitz, Independent Filmmaker

ADHD,a Power to Rebalance is a good complement to this book.
I really like the idea of a strenght based approach. I myself developpe an approach to ADHD -ADHD, a Power to Rebalance- based on the strenghts perspective and as a doctor in psychology and counselor I witness regularly the benefits of working hand in hand with the ADHD person and his systems -family, scholl, communauty- in this approach. You can find more about my approach and the concrete empowerment solutions related to it in my book having the same name ADHD, a Power to Revalance.With confidence,Dre Diane Dulude, Ph.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for anyone interested in twice exceptionality!
Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2018

This book is a compendium of chapters by experts in the field of twice exceptionality. Leading academics, educators, legal advocates, psychologists specializing in assessment, and related professionals were tapped to write chapters in three sections: what is it and how do you identify it; how do you support such learners; and special populations (e.g. ADHD, Asperger's, dyslexia, etc.). I'm the parent of two now young adult twice exceptional students and would have found this book invaluable when I was in the trenches. Even now, as a professional in the field, I learned a great deal. While editor Scott Barry Kaufman (of positive psychology fame) contributed a short introduction, his hand was evident in the scholarly and positive approach taken.

This book has so much current information. I’m so happy I purchased this book because I have a go to now for my teacher conference- not that I don’t like them, but now I just feel like I have more substance as being an advocate for my children ; it’s so important to have other options when your child doesn’t fit in the box. Great book

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent, much needed resource
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2018
This is an excellent resource for parents learning about 2e and advocating for their 2e child. There's a lot of disparate information out there, and this does a beautiful job of compiling it, synthesizing it, and suggesting practical strategies. I'll be giving a copy to my child's school team.

Thank you Scott Barry Kaufman and everyone that contributed to this great body of knowledge!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for its purpose
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 1, 2023
Verified Purchase
In the UK, there’s scant discussion of Twice Exceptional students whereas 2E is garnering quite a bit of interest in the USA at the moment. I wanted those in charge at my child’s school to start thinking about how to not simply support pupils with adhd and asd, but to start looking at more strength-bases approaches.

This book is very academic, dry for me (an educated lay-person) but exactly the kind of tome (with heaps of references to recent studies and research) to convince school administration that Twice Exceptionality, and even strength-based teaching for ADHD/ASD children who Are Not Gifted, is real and deserving of their attention.

Of course, it contains the usual politically correct stuff one has come to expect in every modern academic work, but the majority is interesting and worthwhile. Book was published in 2018 so no doubt there is a lot of more recent findings/research not included, but this is a good start for professionals who know little about the the subject.
