1475:"Pic shows: He is copying expressions. Chinese students who arrive late for class are being asked to copy out 1,000 different emojis on a piece of A4 paper after a university instructor came up with the bizarre and ingenious new punishment. Pictures of the reportedly "effective" detention activity show the young students struggling to draw the odd faces and expressions required of them. Copying out Chinese characters hundreds or even thousands of times has long since been used by teachers in China as punishment for misbehaving students. But one instructor in Chengdu, capital of south-west Chinaís Sichuan Province, has taken it to the next level. Instead of asking her late-arriving students to write the same words over and over again, University of Electronic Science and Technology instructor Gu Huanmeiís method has promised to work the studentsí brains to the core. Each student sent to detention for lateness is given a "handbook" which includes 1,000 different facial emotions ñ emojis ñ in caricature form. The students must copy each emoji exactly as it appears in the handbook ñ and they are not allowed to make mistakes. This, according to Gu, is to prevent students from slacking during detention, forcing them to concentrate with every stroke of their pen or pencil while they carry out the punishment. One student named Wang Wei, who was dealt the punishment of 1,000 emojis, was quoted as saying the method was "effective" and "impressive". (ends) 3:"CEN
