<b>Acting Within the Small Screen: A Netnographic Study of TikTok as a Pedagogical Space for Digital Monologue Performance</b> Welly Suryandoko (25142679) Drama, theatre and performance studies TikTok digital monologue Drama Education netnography <p dir="ltr">TikTok has increasingly become a space for educational and creative practices, including drama and performance activities. However, existing educational research on TikTok has predominantly focused on engagement, digital literacy, and instructional applications. At the same time, less attention has been paid to how TikTok, as a platform, reshapes the practices of acting and performance. This study investigates how digital monologue performance is constructed and negotiated on TikTok and what it reveals about the relationship between theatrical conventions and platform affordances. A qualitative netnographic approach was employed to examine 10 publicly accessible digital monologue videos from two TikTok accounts, with 5 videos from each account. The videos were repeatedly viewed and analyzed through multimodal observation, focusing on camera framing and orientation, facial expression, gesture, bodily movement, spatial organization, performance duration, and on-screen textual elements.</p> 2026-09-30T08:35:56Z Dataset Dataset 10.6084/m9.figshare.34030803.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/_b_Acting_Within_the_Small_Screen_A_Netnographic_Study_of_TikTok_as_a_Pedagogical_Space_for_Digital_Monologue_Performance_b_/34030803 CC BY 4.0
