Kaksoistehtäviin

Kaksoistehtäviin refers to a concept primarily discussed in the field of educational psychology and special education. It describes a situation where a student is expected to simultaneously fulfill two distinct roles or sets of demands. This can manifest in several ways. One common scenario is when a student with special needs, such as learning disabilities or behavioral challenges, is placed in a regular classroom setting. In this context, the student must not only keep up with the general curriculum but also address their specific learning or behavioral requirements, often with individualized support.

Another interpretation of kaksoistehtäviin involves students who are both gifted and have a disability, often referred to as twice-exceptional (2e) learners. These students possess high intellectual abilities in one or more areas, yet also struggle with a disability such as autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, or dyslexia. They are tasked with navigating advanced academic material while simultaneously managing the challenges presented by their disability. This dual nature can make their needs complex and sometimes overlooked, as their giftedness might mask their disability, or their disability might hinder the full expression of their giftedness. The recognition and effective support of kaksoistehtäviin require a nuanced understanding of the individual student's unique profile and a tailored approach to education.
