- Could the Video Ad's Narrative Structure Engage Students in Classroom Context?Publication . Ferreira, Sónia; Santos, Sara; Santo, Pedro EspíritoIt is recognized that teachers have sought to innovate their methods of presenting content and, today, they have at their disposal a variety of support resources that did not have before. These potentialities have changed the way classes are taught today and the dynamics are, in most cases, different from what existed a few decades ago. Among the resources available for teaching, exhibition of videos in the classroom seems to have very relevant effects, both on students' learning and on their greater involvement in activities. However, this is not always the case and the videos presented by teachers do not have the desired effects on students. Thus, based on the assumption that greater immersion in video activates positive behaviors in classrooms, this study seeks to analyze, through a conceptual model, the antecedents of “Narrative Transportation” (immersion in video). In this sense, a video was presented to 107 students from a degree in Advertising and Public Relations, whose narrative is based on fun. After the presentation of the video, data was collected through the application of a questionnaire. Through a causal relationship model, the research work reveals that, in addition to the structure of the video narrative (Narrative Structure), the variable “Joy” (Fun) acts as one of the antecedents of “Narrative Transportation”. These results thus suggest to teachers that the presentation of videos in the classroom, with narratives that involve fun and with clear structures, has benefits in immersing students in the content and narratives presented and in the involvement in the classroom.
- Creative Video Ads in COVID-19: a path to Social Media EngagementPublication . Ferreira, Sónia; Santo, Pedro Espírito; Santos, SaraIn the social sciences, particularly in marketing, professors are present with constant challenges, therefore, they have been looking for new methods to engage students through content in the classroom. However, a global pandemic COVID-19 that led to the confinement of millions of people worldwide and launched new challenges for education in social sciences. There was a greater digitization of educational contents. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to analyse the effects of content creativity on student engagement through WOW effect mediation. Thus, we presented a video available on YouTube and through a survey we obtained 178 responses from students of marketing courses. The results were analysed using PLS-SEM and show that creativity influences the WOW effect and, consequently, students' engagement with the contents. In this context, this study presents important conclusions for education in social sciences, specifically in the area of marketing.
