Currently, the music video is not only considered a form of artistic expression but also a tool to address various environmental issues globally. This study aimed to analyze the perception of university students regarding the use of music videos as an educational resource to foster empathy and environmental awareness in the classroom. Fifty-one students from two courses at a university institution in Ecuador participated. Students watched and analyzed 16 music videos on the YouTube platform during class and responded to a specifically designed survey. The results indicated a positive perception among students regarding the use of music videos to creatively address environmental issues, enabling the promotion of empathy, awareness, and environmental concern, regardless of the participants' course and gender. Our findings support the use of music videos as an alternative tool to complement traditional environmental education systems in the classroom. In conclusion, this study suggests that the integration of music videos in the educational environment can be an enriching strategy to cultivate environmental awareness among university students.
