ABSTRACT

We, as educators, have all seen firsthand that computer science enrollment numbers have gone down during the past few years. Is there a solution that we can employ that will solve the enrollment problem? Although there is no single solution to solve the problem, this paper will present a combination of various ways that could be used to tackle the enrollment problem and hopefully help improve enrollment numbers.
