2e Students: Creating Opportunities for Success
Working with twice-exceptional students can be challenging, but, with the right knowledge, it can also be stimulating, thought provoking, and inspiring! This seminar will focus
on providing opportunities for twice-exceptional students to find success through programming options and strategies to support learning. Dr. Coleman will also discuss collaborative approaches to building supportive networks. Don’t miss this free opportunity
to reflect on what can be learned from twice-exceptional students and how, through meeting their needs, we might better serve all students. EILA credit will be available for educators.
 Dr.
Mary Ruth Coleman conducts research focused on students with exceptional learning needs, particularly students with learning disabilities and students with gifts, at the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute at the University
of North Carolina. She began her career as a teacher in public and private elementary schools, with both regular classroom and special education assignments. Dr. Coleman co-authored the seminal textbook Educating Exceptional Children and
has served as president of The Association for the Gifted and the Council for Exceptional Children.
