  Case: Identifying Gifted Students Who are Special Ed.
Mr. Tyson has just become the gifted program coordinator. He is aware that students are pre-screened by their classroom teachers and recommended to him for further screening. Mr. Tyson has created a gifted characteristics spreadsheet for the teachers to use to identify gifted characteristics in the classroom. Many teachers are convinced that because they are working with students who are classified special ed, they could not be considered gifted or twice exceptional. What can Mr. Tyson do to help break those stereotypes that don't allow students to be properly identified as gifted.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Sometimes, teachers get in their mind that a student is SPED and they forget there is a BIG umbrella that SPED consist of. Maybe having a meeting with these teachers and giving them examples of a twice exceptional student would help them understand there is a such thing. Until I was presented with the material, I did not realize this was even possible.

Comments: It is true a lot of teacher do not realize that SPED entails all kinds of different learners. Informing these teachers is the only way to make them aware of the different types of SPED students.

Comments: I agree with this solution and like this strategy. Having a meeting to discuss students who are considered twice exceptional can help the teachers develop a better understanding and eliminate bias opinions.
