Modules are very useful for students if they are developed based on student characteristics for entrepreneurship courses in the new normal era. For this reason, the objective of this study was to describe the development of STEM-based chemistry learning module based on the characteristics of chemistry students in the new normal era for the entrepreneurship course. The topic of entrepreneurship discussed in this study was goat weight gain. The subjects of this study were the fifth semester students of Chemistry Education. The research method was descriptive. The data were triangulated based on the results of interview, documentation, and questionnaire. The questionnaire was valid with a reliability coefficient of 0.763, greater than the minimum limit of 0.600. The results showed that the students strongly agreed to like to read (35,7%), motivated (35,7), liked to search the internet (78,57%) and 78.57% of them studied the topic of gaining the weight of peanut goats by reading module, and 82.14% of them liked partnership in goat entrepreneurship. The conclusion is that the chemistry learning module has been developed for the entrepreneurship course, and the module is based on student characteristics and STEM, and is characterized by chemistry, which fulfill the research objectives.

Module instrument validation plays an important role in ensuring the quality of the module. For this reason, the purpose of this study was to develop a valid instrument for the development of STEM-Integrated Chemistry Learning Module and chemically characterized Entrepreneurship Course for the millennial generation at Sriwijaya University’s Chemistry Education Study Program. The instrument includes content, pedagogy, and design or practicality validation, which is valid, practical, and effective for limited trials. The respondents of this study were semester-6 students and lecturers of Chemistry Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Sriwijaya University. The results of instrument validation by experts showed that the average Aiken coefficient value on material was 0.92, pedagogy 0.73, and practicality 0.74, which are in very high and high categories. The results indicated that the module development instrument has met the validity and practicality criteria
