“…Changing the pedagogy of faculty has been a longstanding issue that requires sustained effort and active feedback. The NSF's Revolutionizing Engineering Departments (RED) project, for example, has supported projects with millions of dollars devoted to the complexity of creating a cultural change to improve university education (Lord et al, 2018). In 2017, the Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), which accredits engineering education programs, revised its list of student outcomes significantly (ABET, 2018), leading to an extensive rethinking of engineering curriculum throughout the U.S.…”

Computer vision has the potential to play a significant role in capacity building for classroom instructors via automated feedback. This paper describes the implementation of an automated sensing and feedback system, TEACHActive. The results of this paper can enable other campuses to replicate a similar system using open-source software and consumer-grade hardware. Some of the challenges discussed include faculty recruitment, IRB procedures, camera-based classroom footage privacy, hardware setup, software setup, and IT support. The design and implementation of the TEACHActive system is being carried out at Iowa State University and is being tested with faculty in classrooms pilots. Preliminary interviews with instructors show a desire to include more active learning methods in their classrooms and overall interest in a system that can perform automated feedback. The primary results of this paper include lessons learned from the institutional implementation process.
