The computer science education crisis: fact or illusion?

Some contemporary or relatively recent articles, studied together, seem to suggest that computer science education is in a state of crisis. But, is it? This article examines the arguments. My preliminary findings is that if you examine the arguments from a positivist stance, you may well infer that there is a crisis, but if you view them from a constructivist perspective, the crisis becomes an illusion. Either way, the article concludes by setting a research question whose outcome may establish, more conclusively, if the crisis is indeed true or illusory.
