Study design: Clinical Trial
Abstract: Theatrical films are gradually applied to education field in past years, especially in courses of business administration, psychology, and linguistics. Being a visualized and situated teaching tool, films could effectively deliver abstract concept as well as induce students’ emotional resonance and enhance deep learning. Students could promote the problem-solving skills and creativity through observing and imitating movie characters’ behaviors. This study examined a cohort of 172 international school students in Shaanxi Province. The intervention comprised a 16-week program (48 sessions) that combined theatrical film-based pedagogy with leadership development. Analysis of the data demonstrated three significant relationships: the integrated film-leadership instruction positively influenced student learning motivation; this instructional approach enhanced student creativity; and increased learning motivation corresponded with higher creativity levels. These findings contribute to both the theoretical framework and practical applications of film-based methodologies in leadership education, offering implications for future pedagogical design.
