Thought I'd share this article about Susan Assouline and the Belin-Blank Center at the U of Iowa. Her recent research on 2E has resulted in the Belin-Blank Center establishing NITE, a resource and training center about 2E.

I got a great pamphlet/mini booklet from them specifically about 2e with Autism/Asperger's and it is GREAT! Perfect for handing to new teachers....not too intimidating. (I have been know to walk in with a pile of books...) Nan
Nan, what's the title of the booklet?
Thanks,
DeeDee
DeeDee, I got it from the Belin-Blank website. I'm pretty sure it is just called the Twice Exceptional Student with Asperger's. I need to dig it out for meet the teacher day! I will repost when I have the exact title. Nan
Thanks for sharing the 2-E website !
DeeDee, The pamphlet I have is called "The Paradox of Giftedness and Autism." Nan
