“A detailed description of what the participants say and do in an interaction is not the same as an analysis of a practice that participants will use to accomplish an action. One model of an analysis of a practice is that it should enable someone to competently use that practice to perform an action. This involves moving away from discussing what particular people did on the occasion, to considering what people need to know and do in order to appropriately perform the action in any new situations they encounter. ”
“actions demonstrating forms of involvement performed by parties within evolving structures of talk” (Goodwin & Goodwin 2004: 222)
"Chuck stressed the importance of being “open to the world around you” and not being blinded by the myths of your discipline. As Chuck put it,

He also recommended systematic, comparative analysis and the “value in trying to see regularities across different kinds of phenomena,” as he had done earlier that day in a comparison of girls playing hopscotch (C. Goodwin, 2000; M. H. Goodwin, C. Goodwin, & Yaeger-Dror, 2002) and archeologists excavating human dwellings (C. Goodwin, 1994). ...In Chuck’s hands, epistemic ecologies became the topic of the analysis, not an external method or scale for measuring the quality of thought of his study participants."
