In education there are students who are often identified for their disability but under-identified for their often-co-existing giftedness. These learners are referred to as being twice-exceptional (or multi-exceptional/dual exceptional); having one or more disabilities combined with giftedness. For example: autism spectrum disorders; dyslexia; motor skill difficulties; ADHD; and/or dysgraphia; fundamentally, any disability that impacts on a student’s learning in a regular classroom environment. It is estimated that between 7-9 per cent of school students may be twice-exceptional however, due to the challenges of identifying both exceptionalities the exact prevalence rates of these children remains unknown. In this session Dr Ronksley-Pavia will provide an overview of twice-exceptionality, and multiple exceptionality in Australia sharing some her research about the prevalence and lived-experiences of these learners.
