Short Description: This interactive workshop will explore explicit self-regulation instruction for twice-exceptional (2e) learners through a strength-based approach. Participants will learn how to use Individualized Education Program goals to develop targeted strategies that address areas of weakness while leveraging students’ strengths. Through case studies and analysis of concomitant traits attendees will explore options and implement practical solutions to support 2e students.

Learning Objectives:

Understand the unique needs of 2e learners, including their concomitant strengths and challenges.
Utilize IEP goals to develop and implement targeted interventions.
Create an original product (e.g., Google form, infographic, or lesson adaptation) tailored to a specific 2e student.
