ENGLISH DEPARTMENT, STATE UNIVERSITY OF PADANG
Spoken English Activity (SEA) is one of subjects that are taught in
English Department of State University of Padang. Sophomore students in their
fourth semester can take this subject, which has only one credit. The goal is
to improve students’ English ability orally through activities, such as
singing, debate, poetry reading, drama, speech, master of ceremony, news
reading, storytelling, and dancing. Students choose one of those activities according
to their interest and talent. Especially for Singing Club, Master of Ceremony
Club, and Dancing Club, students who are interested to join those clubs should
take an audition first because besides the large number of interested persons
of those clubs, students must have a talent related to those clubs. One or two
lecturers guide for each club. At the end of the semester, students will
perform their talent based on what clubs they are belong to, and it will be
their final examination.
