Both Montgomery and Rossi
noted that Dearborn enrollment

Ross said there would be some

math has a high status in our so-,
ciety though he says, "I don't
know why, but every student in
the early grades seems to know
about math."
Johntz explained the students
can develop confidence in this one
area and then go on to the reme-
dial tasks in other areas at which
they could never before succeed.
Johntz reinforces his pupils by
saying, "You pick up on that idea
faster than most high school stu-
dents," or "You are going to at-
tack an idea a lot of college grad-
uates are mixed up about."
All of his tactics are designed
to point out achievement to stu-
dents who have previously had no
"success models" says Johntz.
Johntz explained the program
must involve trained mathema-
ticians who are capable of answer-
ing any level of question in math.
The program is run in addition to
the regular arithmetic courses that,
children must take, he said.
Throughout the class new words
entered the dialogue. Johntz
would have the children reiterate
them and would write them on the
chalk board so they could see what
the word actually looked like.
After using formidable he said,;
"Do you know what formidable
means?-kind of scary-use it on
the way home."
Johntz took off on tangents
whenever they were made availa-
ble to him and each one was in

At one point Johntz requested
"a really wild number" to slot into
a completed formula. One student
offered 153, however another ob-
jected because he didn't like odd
numbers. A fast survey soon show-
ed the students overwhelmingly'
preferred even to odd numbers.
The students also believed there
were more even numbers than odd.
Johntz dismissed this by urging
them all to think about it. "This is:
a question which has been bother-
inb mathematicians for ages," he!
said.
Johntz introduced a difficult
conceptual problem at the end of'
the "class period" telling the stu-
dents they should think about it
on the bus back to Detroit.
But 'the students wouldn't let
him stop at this point and asked
to solve it. One legislator requested
the solution in the question and
answer period.
Johntz closed asking the stu-
dents "What will you think of
when you look up at the State
Capitol?"
One student quickly replied, "I'm
gonna think about that problem."
Sen. Coleman Young, (D-De-
troit), who introduced Johntz, has
said it would be of "utmost im-
portance that all legislators see
this demonstration and understand
... as the House and Senate pre-
pare to recommendations for beef-
ing up Michigan's educational sys-
tem."
