Abstract
The purpose of this research is to analyze the teachers’ need for acid-base chemistry learning module based on 7E learning cycle model to practice critical thinking skills and foster learning motivation of high school students during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research is a descriptive qualitative study. The participants are 14 chemistry teachers from 10 high schools in Tulungagung, Indonesia, who were selected using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using an online questionnaire containing semi-closed questions and analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis techniques. Based on the results of questionnaire, most teachers changed their learning methods during the pandemic. As many as 72% of teachers teach using the assignment method. This condition causes all teachers to need other teaching materials besides textbooks that can make students master chemistry well, especially on acid-base topic, which is difficult for students to learn. The module is one of the learning materials whose presentation flow can be arranged using learning model, for example, a module based on 7E learning cycle model. The 7E learning cycle model is considered to be able to improve students’ critical thinking skills and learning motivation because it encourages them to be active in learning activities. Therefore, all teachers responded that it is necessary to develop acid-base chemistry learning module based on 7E learning cycle model.
