Students’ Responses About Using E-Module for Physics Practicum in Pandemic Era

Abstract

This research aimed to describe students' responses about using emodule for physics practicum in pandemic era. This research was qualitative research with descriptive method. There were 40 respondents who filled a questionnaire via google form. All of respondents are students of physics education program in Universitas Bengkulu who did physics practicum in 2020 that conducted online because of pandemic (Covid-19) era. The questionnaire was about how e-module has been used and e-module should be. The results showed that 62.5% of students got e-module in portable document format (PDF) and the others in word document (.doc or .docx). 75% of students opened e-module by using smartphone and laptop, 17.5% only by using smartphone and the others printed out module. Almost students (95%) accessed e-module by downloading and then learned offline meanwhile 5% learned online. There were 95% of students want e-module that used to have tutorial video in it and all of them want e-module that used to have scientific approach so their science process skills could be improved. Based on the results, e-module should be opened not only by using laptop but also smartphone. The e-module must be developed by inserting tutorial videos and using scientific approach.
