English For Police Officer 1. Background Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia. This city is one of the densest population cities in the world. Its area is about 661,52 km and the total population is about 10 million people (Dinas Kependudukan dan Pencatatan Sipil DKI Jakarta, 2008). Since Jakarta is the capital city, so this city becomes the central government of Indonesia. Not only becoming the center of the Indonesian government, Jakarta also becomes a place where all embassies from countries all over the world exist. Moreover there are so many foreign companies and foreign banks in Jakarta, it means many foreign people work and live in Jakarta; the data show that there are 4 thousand foreign people live in Jakarta. Regarding to this situation and condition, English language becomes one of language demands in doing communication in Jakarta. The one who has a direct relationship to people and society to give information, protection, help and service is a police officer (UU no. 13/1961). Most of police officers duties are deal with communication. In article 13 UU no. 13/1961, it is stated that besides giving information, police officer has to be competent in receiving complaints, checking out peoples ID card and calling people to be investigated. All of the duties of police officers are not only applied for Indonesian people but also for foreign people who lived in Indonesia in order to keep everything safe and in order. Therefore it is very important for police officers, especially in Jakarta, to master English language to do their job when they are dealing with foreign people. Because police is an occupation, so English that is appropriate for police is EOP (English for Occupational Purposes). EOP is a term used for English used for a person working in the field as a professional; so it is not related to the academic world. EOP focuses more on the practical language that is demanded by a particular job (Evan& St. John, 1998).
2. Need Analysis The following is the need analysis in developing an ESP course for Police Officers. This analysis consists of some aspects that are adapted from Dudley-Evans and St. John (1998) Personal information about the target learners
Mostly, our target learners have learnt English when they were a student in junior and senior high school. But, only few of them that have joined the English course outside their school time. In their English course class, they learnt English as a general. Their reasons in joining an English course were only to know about English. At that time, They thought that the way they learnt English was very formal. Sometimes, that situation made them bored and make their learning ineffective. English Language information about the learners
Based on our target learners personal information that have been discussed in the previous part, we can categorize our learners English proficiency level is in post-beginner and pre-intermediate level. In their current job as a police officer, what they need to learn are is more specific. Based on the interviews result, the most important English language skills that they need is speaking skill. It is because in their working field, they always interact with other people using oral communication. In certain situation, they need to listen to somebody complaint or read some information which is written in English for example, they have to read foreigners identity card or permission letter. Therefore, they also need to improve their listening skill and reading skill. The target learners lack
From the questionnaire and interview result, we found that our target learners still has weakness in some parts of English in terms of vocabulary, pronunciation, and also grammar knowledge. We also found that their speaking skill still needs to be improved because they did not have enough time and environments condition to support them in practicing their English. Language learning information
The target learners expectation about the course is it can provide them an effective ways to help them in leaning the skill and language. They hope this course can give them some fun and meaningful activities. So, based the information that we got from our target learners, we decide to design course materials and activities which are appropriate for them (based on their age, English proficiency level, expectations). The teaching techniques that will be used is varied. It means that the teaching techniques will be based on the condition and situation in the classroom. The type of assessment that will be used is informal assessment. It is because our target learners do not want to be tested. So, this type of assessment aims to check their progress in learning only. Learners expectation from the course
Based on the questionnaire and the interview, our target learners expectations from this course are this course can help them in improving their English language skills especially speaking skill, can enrich their English vocabulary especially the vocabulary that is related to their current job as a police officers. They also hope that this course may help them to learn English better especially about daily conversation such as introducing their self, greeting, describing something, offering help, giving directions, explaining procedures, giving information and so on. Moreover, they also expect that the teaching and learning process will be interesting, fun, and meaningful for them. They do not want to have a course which is too formal or serious because it will make them bored and unmotivated to learn. Environmental situation in which the course will be run
Based on the information that have been collected from the target learners, the following in the environmental situation in which the course will be run: 1. The class will consist 5-10 learners (small class) 2. Each student will be given a course book that is developed by the teacher. The course book is made based on the target learners needs in learning English. 3. Teacher will act more as a facilitator.

4. Rationale We design this course in the intention of improving English skills and knowledge of police officers in Jakarta. The course is kind of compulsory course that will be held twice a week. The total period of the course is 30 hours course, with length of each meeting is two hours; there will be break time 10 minutes in the middle of the session. So the course will end in 15 weeks. The importance of mastering English skills and knowledge is the police officers will be able to deal with foreign people in doing their job. In order to get the information of the target students needs about English, the course designers distributed a questionnaire to the target students. It was used because we considered the practicality aspect. We did not want to spent too much time or burden the target students, so we asked them to fill the questionnaire that only need less time. By using questionnaire, we also got benefit that we can get more participants. After we got the result of the questionnaire, we interviewed 2 of the participants to recheck or confirm on what they have revealed in the questionnaire. We did semi-structured interview so we had had the guidance but we were flexible to get some additional information. Some of questions about assessment and learning activities were also asked to them to know their interest. Because oral communication is the basic needs of the police- from the need analysis-, so this course is more focus on speaking and listening skill. In every meeting we give the students opportunity to speak by performing dialogue, reading aloud and discussion. We also provide them listening section so they will get use to the way of foreigners speak. The materials that will be given to the students will be related to their job setting-contextual and we attempt to give them the authentic one.
5. Assessment and Course Evaluation To know whether the participants of the course have made an improvement, teacher will do observation in each meeting. It is done so, because the participants do not require scoring. They only need to know their record of improvement trough feedback sheet and observation that is done by the teacher. All of the report will be given to all participants at the end of the course. The course program also will be evaluated at the end of the course. A set of questionnaire will be distributed to the participants to know their opinion and suggestion toward the course, so that the course can be improved in another occasion.

As police find new ways to crack down on fake ID (i.e. searching the Internet for underground companies), new technology is created to help make fraudulent ID look authentic. ID cards with security measures, such as magnetic stripes and barcodes help to prevent people from getting away with fake ID. However, an even greater problem for police is the concern of identity theft. Some thieves make a profession out of stealing wallets, purses, or personal mail in order to sell new identities to criminals or illegal immigrants.
