“…Research on the effectiveness of videos in classroom instruction has shown that they help to draw and hold students' attention (Berk, 2009;Dhingra, 2003), help students to make emotional connections with content (Champoux, 1999), can improve acquisition and retention of knowledge (Fortner, 1985), and can increase students' sensitivity to environmental issues (Barbas et al, 2009;Fortner, 1985). Researchers interested in the use of documentaries in classrooms frequently focus on the result of viewing one or two specific documentaries to examine the pedagogical effectiveness of particular films (e.g., Barbas et al, 2009;Owens, 1987). Little research, if any, has centered on fully online college teaching with documentary film serving as the only text.…”

As US colleges and universities incorporate an international requirement for undergraduate students, this study assesses the value of an online international documentary course. The effect of documentary viewing was evaluated using students’ reflective essays, noting possible shifts in perspectives on international issues after film viewing. Findings show that students gained new knowledge, displayed empathy, felt “blessed” for their privileges, and were inspired to help others. Findings also reflected an ignorance about inequitable power relationships between the United States and other countries, producing an “othering” effect. Recommendations are provided for engaging students in more critical research and reflection about local-global connections.

“…Sehubungan itu, Owens (1987) pula menyatakan, mesej yang disampaikan daripada kandungan berbentuk dokumentari juga berkesan dalam memberi peningkatan dari segi pengetahuan kepada masyarakat walaupun tanpa melalui unsur hiburan. Fakta dan maklumat tepat banyak yang diterima oleh masyarakat akan memberi keyakinan dan kepercayaan kepada masyarakat.…”

“…Mesej atau informasi melalui dokumentari menumpukan kepada kandungan yang berbentuk mendidik tanpa mengandungi unsur hiburan. Owens (1987) menyatakan, sikap dan tingkah laku penonton berpotensi berubah melalui sumber maklumat dan pengetahuan yang berkaitan diri individu tersebut daripada program televisyen terutamanya yang berbentuk dokumentari. Malah tahap pengetahuan penonton juga akan semakin bertambah melalui pendekatan yang santai dan mengandungi informasi yang jelas di dalam program dokumentari.…”

AbstrakKajian ini bertujuan untuk melihat kesan drama hibur-didik dan dokumentari dalam mempengaruhi niat penonton untuk menderma organ dengan menilai proses pemujukan yang berlaku. Model Elaboration Likelihood yang dibangunkan oleh Petty dan Cacioppo (1986) digunakan dalam kajian ini. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah eksperimen berbentuk pra, pasca dan susulan (selepas satu bulan). Seramai 164 orang peserta terlibat dalam kajian ini dan mereka dibahagikan secara rawak kepada dua kumpulan iaitu kumpulan yang menonton video berbentuk hibur didik dan kumpulan yang menonton video berbentuk dokumentari. Analisis statistik yang digunakan dalam kajian ini ialah Kolerasi Pearson r, Partial Correlation, Multiple Regression dan One Way Repeated Measure ANOVA diikuti dengan Ujian Post-Hoc. Hasil kajian menyokong Model Elaboration Likelihood di mana proses pemujukan dalam kumpulan hibur didik adalah berbentuk peripheral (tidak dipengaruhi oleh faktor perantara iaitu pertikaian dan tindak balas) manakala proses pemujukan dalam kumpulan dokumentari adalah berbentuk central (dipengaruhi oleh faktor perantara iaitu pertikaian dan tindak balas). Kajian juga menunjukkan bahawa kumpulan dokumentari lebih terdorong untuk menderma organ berbanding kumpulan hibur didik. Ini secara tidak langsung menyangkal keberkesanan program hibur-didik dalam proses pemujukan.

“…More educated people show little or no difficulty in processing new information (Glynn 1980;Owens 1987;Kaye and others 1985). This probably occurs because more educated adults have better learning strategies that compensate for age-related losses.…”
