Do we need another editorial about engaging students in learning computer science so they will stay in the field and prepare for a career or further study? We wish it were not so, but in spite of some progress, there is little evidence that our students complete courses or stay in their degree programs at better rates than a few years ago. There are bright spots in the picture and some promising results here and there, but an overall pattern of change and improvement is not yet evident.
Cooper et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
