How do we fix this problem and reverse the downward trend?

Show students the ways in which Computer Science is changing the world – make the content relevant.
Show students the many disciplines that use Computer Science  – lots of careers use Computer Science skills.
Find a more creative way to teach Computer Science – there are lots of choices.

In this blog, I have posted articles and links that address all of my points above.
