Report topic: “Double exceptionality as a present-day issue of inclusive education”
“Double exceptionality” is the combination of giftedness with learning difficulties, attention or other cognitive functions, and behavioral disorders. Nowadays, the issues of education for these children are very relevant.
Children with “double exceptionality” need pedagogical approaches appropriate to their educational needs. The support provided to them should be aimed at developing their strengths (talent) and at the same time overcoming their weaknesses. Methodical approaches to working with these children and adaptations to the educational environment were analyzed as well.
