Abstract

Ethnomethodological analysis comprises interdisciplinary work, including sociology, linguistics and pragmatics, educational sciences, anthropology, and other disciplines and fields. This approach uses video recordings in order to engage in a close analysis of social life, more specifically to investigate social actors’ embodied meaning-making and ordinary social practices that have a visual dimension. Various social perspectives utilize video recordings for research purposes in line with a broad interest in the visual. Video recordings of work and interaction enable researchers to address a range of topics and issues such as how professional knowledge, skills, and work practices emerge and are shared between social actors. Within the ethnomethodological perspective, data collection through video recording necessitates for the identification of relevant activities, participants’ actions, and their socio-material settings and temporal features.
