[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

I thought this was such an incredible interview by ⁦⁦@LucyBronze⁩ to raise awareness for Autism and ADHD. Highly recommend having a watch! https://t.co/cYhGneNbty

I'm delighted to share that today is... my first day as a Lecturer at @NottmTrentUni 🥳. 5 years as an Academic Associate was so enjoyable and I'm so pleased to be continuing my journey with @PsychologyNTU. @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

@DavidWEccles @PsychologyNTU @NottmTrentUni Cheers David ☺️! There really isn’t when you’ve got a great team around you 🥳!

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

The good news is on a roll this week as… I’ve accepted my first lectureship position @PsychologyNTU 🥳! I’m so thrilled to stay a part of the NTU family. I love my job and I’m so pleased I get to continue to work with awesome people and students @NottmTrentUni.

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

@rremediosva @PsychologyNTU @NottmTrentUni Thank you @rremediosva. Though I wouldn’t be here without great people such as yourself, @JulieH_Psyc and @Dr_Iain_Wilson who have believed in me all the way. I’m truly blessed to have such an amazing team around me.

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

So today I completed my first half marathon 🥳. With a serious knee injury this year, I didn’t think it was possibly as I only managed to get up to 8km. But with some people around me, I managed to get it done in 1hr 53 mins 🥳🥳🥳. Great break from the PhD 😂 @PhDVoice

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Term starting at @PsychologyNTU only means one thing, it’s now bow tie and braces time 🥳🥳! Back on first year tutorials this year and excited to see our newbies 🤩! I’m just sorry they pulled the short straw and got the crazy lecturer 🤔. #soexcited

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Such a great experience presenting my research on university hidden transitions at #BPSPES2024 as part of this symposium with the University of Manchester. Also, was a great excuse to dust off the bow tie and braces ready for the new term @PsychologyNTU 🥳.

[Dr Charlotte Bagnall @_CBagnall]

Insightful consideration of both staged and non-staged educational and developmental transitions from the lovely @ola_demk @eccles1904 @bethhannah64 @rremediosva Caroline Ford and Sam Williams at our transitions symposium at #BPSPES2024

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

I couldn’t agree more with this! A fantastic talk by @DrErikaSpray. It was amazing to see consideration for first in family students and how we can not only further support them, but those that are close to them too, with the hope of facilitating success for all ☺️!

[Dr Charlotte Bagnall @_CBagnall]

Fantastic presentation by @DrErikaSpray at #BPSPES2024 on how parents’ motivational messages relate to university students’ disposition towards learning. Some very useful implications when considering HE transitions for students in receipt of contextual offers.

[Dr Charlotte Bagnall @_CBagnall]

Fantastic start to #BPSPES2024 cocktails and running in the rain, what could be better!!!

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

So @PsychologyNTU are hosting a summer school this week and yours truly is part of the show, which means one thing, the bow tie and braces are back🥳! I'll be delivering positive & sport psychology and I genuinely can't wait! As much as I enjoy my PhD, I've missed this ☺️!

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Present from one of my students ❤️. I often get told by students how much I’ve helped them, but what they might not realise is quite how much much they inspire me. Seeing them grow is such a privilege to see and I’m so pleased to play a small part in their journey ☺️! #lovemyjob

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Drum roll… Transcription is finished 🤯! I’m delighted to reach this milestone after a few hefty challenges along the way! At the end of my final transcript, I came across a quote of mine, one that will be pinned up above my desk for next part of my PhD journey. @PhDVoice

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Thank you Julie! It was great to present my 'Psychology in the park' concept and use the time to discuss how we bring innovation into our teaching. It helped by being surrounding by such a welcoming community!

[Prof Julie Hulme @JulieH_Psyc]

Shout out to @jennywahwah @eccles1904 @DebbieHolley1 @hehenderson @mossposs

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Sport Psych exam day @PsychologyNTU, meaning I have to dress for the occasion. Typically anxiety follows when you mention exams, but it filled with me so much joy to see the students smile and laugh when they saw me. Whatever happens today, they're still my gang of superstars!

What can we bring to student learning that ChatGPT cannot? Well, #AI will never be able to replace some things. Learning in the sun with a dog by your side or learning with each other by knowing each other. @eccles1904 discusses Psychology in the Park! #ANTF2024

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Don’t suppose you would lend a hand helping me to create my superhero with a bow tie @CleggDr (bow ties are cool after all) #ANTF2024

[Prof Louise Taylor, PhD @L_Psychol]

Having fun creating AI versions of ourselves as superheroes at our conference dinner … #ANTF2024 using DALL-E4, thanks @CleggDr

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

Back for day 2 🥳! It has been such a beautiful experience so far. Everyone has been so welcoming and I’ve received such positive feedback on my presentation ‘Psychology in the Park’. Can’t wait to meet more like minded people who want to make a difference. #ANTF2024

[NTF Tweet @NTF_Tweet]

It's a bright sunny start in Nottingham today as we look forward to the start of Day 2 of #ANTF2024 Symposium. Welcome to everyone joining us today and welcome back to those who were with us yesterday! Event details at: https://t.co/kiHRocFXXz

[Stephen Eccles @eccles1904]

@tavoer8 Thank you so much for the kind words Gustavo. I hope the talk can be an inspiration that the world is our oyster in regards to where we teach 🥳 (well, within the budget that is 😂).
