Abstract

Charles Goodwin’s legacy includes a multitude of analytical tools for examining meaning making in interaction. We focus on Goodwin’s substrate—“the local, public configuration of action and semiotic resources” available in interaction used to create shared meanings (Goodwin, 2018, p. 32), gathering early career scholars to explore how research designs adapt substrate as an analytical tool for education research in diverse settings. This structured poster session examines how substrate can be used to capture a complex web of learning phenomena and support important analytical shifts, including representing learning processes, privileging members’ phenomena to address issues of equity, and understanding shifting power relations through multi-layered and multi-scaled analyses.
