Are you familiar with debating? Have you experienced how to do that? Do you want to try? Why Not? Debate club is the answer. For more than one year, SSE has this club for everyone who loves to debate. It provides so many challenges for you all who want to be a debater. Do you dare with it?
Debate club is one of the great clubs we have at SSE. We always have a routine schedule once a week on Tuesday. Many topics have been a part of our debating programs, like factual issues, education issues or special issues that it happens in our life. We make a little thing as an important thing to think. That’s the point. We try to dig a deep thought, which is rare to talk about it in our social life. We start to have critical thinking by doing debating among students.
However, doing debating is not an easy thing. We need to have so many references to make our argument be stronger. That’s the way to win debating. It means that all members need to know more the factual issues by reading, having a good point of view, etc. Everyone needs to collect some data from the real fact to support the argument. So it will be our strength on doing debating.
Joining a competition is also a part of some purposes at debate club. Debating with others that we don’t know will be better because it’s full of challenges. On May 14, 2011, we had a chance to join debate competition with Sampoerna School of Business (SSB). So the representatives for this chance were Andik Hidayat, Rina Febrina Sarie and M. Iqbal Maulana. They were great to do this. So do us. Everyone will be able to do all things when they want, when they have a big motivation. Don’t ever be afraid to do debate. Will you be the next for another chance?
As teacher candidates, it’s true to say that we need to know many things in our life, isn’t it? Doing debating could be one of the ways to make us think more about issues that it happens in our life. It will be very useful for having more knowledge and be critical with all things happens. Debating is not for defeating others. It’s for knowing a truth. It makes us to think more deeply. It’s nice as well. So we are waiting for your coming to join with us.
