Abstract

In this paper, we describe an interesting and contemporary topic called steganography and ways that it can easily be included in computer science courses. Today, steganography is used in many ways. By discussing and demonstrating steganography, an instructor can show interesting examples, ranging from simple to complex, of how computer science is found in commercial, military, and private software applications. Our results, although strictly casual, suggest that steganography, and its applications, naturally stimulate interest in most computer science students. Any time a person is interested in a topic, he or she tends to focus more and better on it. In this case, the topics are computer science courses.
