It's strange that Helen will not be leading https://t.co/kG2rMhjGPL; we do not underestimate the responsibility she is passing on to me at @durham_uni & @Capa1stResponse to continue her incredible work A huge honour & privilege @DurhamSociology @MSW_Durham_Uni @CRiVADurham

I'm very excited to be joining @OxfordCrim as an academic visitor next term for my research leave from @DurhamSociology Unfortunately, my accommodation has fallen through, so recommendations are welcome!! Also, I'm looking for a friendly gym while I'm there... 🤣 Help!

❤️

Big thanks to the wonderful @kelda_kelly for the opportunity to present at the @AddressingDA event today Myself, @CommissionerDA & Assistant Chief Constable Sam Millar look less than impressed on our panel, but we're just super passionate about ending VAWG! @CRiVADurham

Lovely to be included in Kelly's #CommunityOverCommercialisation blog! Always blown away by the tenacity of parents seeking to support their children. It's a massive privilege to be able to work and collaborate with so many of them ❤️ @DurhamSociology @MSW_Durham_Uni

Next week is #OAWeek 2024 The theme is 'Community over Commercialisation' In our latest blog post, Repository Officer Kelly Hetherington reflects on some of her favourite moments of hearing about how research benefits communities: https://t.co/zUJKfckEwK

Revealing and upsetting scenes in this film. These four mums are caring for their sons who have complex needs that result in distressing and harmful behaviour. They want to highlight the result of cuts in services. https://t.co/3BLPQcCayJ https://t.co/3BLPQcCayJ

@durham_uni @EducByDesign Nice to share my own work on humanising approaches to teaching on the @DurhamSociology community placement module 😃😃 seeing students as whole human beings with their own rich lived experience

@durham_uni @EducByDesign We now have Dawn Whitton and Jenny Mah from @DUBusSchool, who worked with decolonising interns to look at how inclusive their assessments were, from a decolonising perspective! The high number of international students created some interesting findings!!

@durham_uni @EducByDesign Now we have Lewis Mates, Cayden Gill, and Sharon Berhane talking about First-Gen students' social and financial challenges during covid-19 Students conducted the thematic analysis of interview data, funded by the @careersatdurham Reimagine Research internship 🥳🥳

@durham_uni @EducByDesign This afternoon, I'm in the 'inclusive assessments' stream, starting with Beth Barnes on 'decolonising curriculum outside of discipline'

@durham_uni @EducByDesign Playful learning with Precious Brenni from @DUBusSchool, leaning away from lectures and case studies (which is favoured in his field), towards playful creativity and reflectivity

@durham_uni @EducByDesign All students agreed that the skill they had developed was time management, and this was hugely beneficial to them when moving into employment
