ABSTRACT
This commentary chapter moves from the author's personal encounters with Interactional Ethnography (IE) to considering its methodological power to inform educational research from an international perspective. In doing so, the chapter explains how this volume creates contextually rich insights about the uses and possibilities of IE to evoke a humane and socioculturally nuanced approach to the investigation of educational processes and learning opportunities in and across space and time. The chapter ends by considering future possibilities and challenges of IE in changing societies and ecologies.
