This work owes its existence to the help, support and inspiration of several people. Firstly, my deepest gratitude is to my supervisors, Pupung Purnawarman, M.S.Ed., Ph.D. and Muhammad Handi Gunawan, M.Pd. who have spent their time (even their weekends) in guiding me at all the stages of this project. The whole process has taught me so much.

See you in Jannah, Pah. My dearest darling mom, Cicih Garnasih, who always stood by me like a pillar in times of need and to whom I owe my life for her constant love, encouragement, moral support, and blessings.
