TikTok is the most used social network, however, little is known about the results of the use of TikTok as a teaching resource, especially in marketing. The purpose of this research is to study the pedagogical potential of using TikTok in marketing teaching. The sample consisted of 971 first-year students of the introductory marketing course. A four-group experimental design was implemented, with measurement at the beginning and end of the course and a control group in each case.
