Our use of current technology Increases the need for leadership in mathematics and science. Unfortunately, economic constraints are reducing the size of teaching staffs while increasing class size. Elementary classroom teachers realize that mathematics and science are extremely important in contemporary society and that the development of talent in these areas ls often unintentionally slighted. Wheatley (1979) reports a decline in favorable attitudes towards mathematics from Grade 4 to Grade 6 which ls perhaps more apparent among gifted students.
