International Joint Audit Institute Carried Out Labor Practice Class

2020.12.27


In order to thoroughly apply the "Advice about Comprehensively Enhancing Labor Education in Primary School, Middle School and University in the New Era "drafted by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council, building an education system where a student’s virtue, intelligence, physical conditions, mind status and community service could be comprehensively developed and cultivating the social responsibility and the healthy personality of a student, International Joint Audit Institute carried out a labor practice class on December 27th. 293 students in the whole institute gathered at 6:20 AM and finished tools distribution at 6:40 AM. Then they worked as groups and walked to their allocated area, cleaning all the roads in Nanjing Audit University.



Since students had high enthusiasm, some groups had finished the task ahead of schedule---before 8:30 AM. Teachers in the General Affairs Department of NAU checked the result carefully according to assessment criterion. They paid more attention to if there are left sundries in the main road and sidewalk, as well as dry leaves and white trash inside the green belt. Moreover, they asked each group to pack up their trash and put garbage bags to garbage station. The general situation was satisfactory, with many groups achieving their goals. However, due to the green belt had a complicated design, some groups didn't clean up thoroughly. Under the guidance of teachers, they finally made an improvement.



Students who had finished their task returned the tools successively from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM, in a strict order. Teachers from General Affairs Department scored the completion of the task of one group. Scoring criteria include 7 aspects: road, ditch, green belt, public facility, dustbin, trash collecting, tools getting and returning.



At 10 o 'clock, the labor practice finished. Dean Li Min called all group leaders to hold the summing up meeting in IBA1 classroom. He said sincerely and earnestly: "Perhaps you are wondering why this labor practice class starts so early. In fact, the reason is very simple. It is at 6am that cleaning workers start to work. I hope that 'early' will leave a deep impression on your mind. Perhaps you once thought that cleaning work has no technical content, but today you should find that it is actually very hard and not easy to do a good job of cleaning.


Seeing that many of our classmates even do not know how to use the tools of labor, I find that our students seldom participate in labor. Labor practice is a part of growing education. The development of character and habit should start from now on, from every single thing. I hope you can do everything well from sweeping the floor seriously."



Students had strong feelings after knowing that what the nearly 300 students in the institute had done in this labor practice class was usually finished perfectly by only a dozen of hard-working cleaners.


Yang Zihan, a student in class IEA1, expressed her feelings: "In the practice today, every student works hard to finish his task, and we all experience the difficulty of cleaning workers. Today’s labor teaches us the precious quality of workers—patience and perseverance, and only by working steadfastly and step by step, can we achieve something. After the practice, I truly know that there is wisdom in tediousness and sweetness in bitterness, though it may be a hard work."


According to Gu Haoyue, a student in IFA1, "We often say 'labor is the most glorious', but it is only when I pick up a broom and a rake that I truly understand this sentence. When I see the original messy roads take on an altogether new aspect by sweeping, I realize that labor brings people satisfaction and happiness. ‘If you wish to understand a matter profoundly, you must gain it by personal experience.’ Having experienced this labor practice class, I have a more profound understanding of the value of labor."
