 Background

 How is the use of chemistry e-

Book Developed by 4S TMD?

 The development of modern life is currently the involvement of

various sciences on the environment and technology cannot be
separated anymore, as well as with chemistry. Current technological
developments in teaching materials developed are not only limited
to the types of printed teaching materials such as books, modules,
worksheets, and others. Teaching materials can also be arranged in
the form of videos, software formats, or the results of a combination
of sharing formats that can be used by students or teachers

 E-Book is part of e-learning that contains the principle of open

education, distance education where students cannot actively
participate in learning with video, simulation, and automatic scoring
systems that can be displayed. These e-books invite young children
to interact with books in ways they have not done before: narration,
music, animation, print highlights, color, hyperlinks, motion,
embedded games, and haptics (e.g., swiping, tapping, dragging) are
powerful attractors that can capture and influence viewer/reader
attention

  How is the use of chemistry e-
Book Developed by 4S TMD?

 With computers and Internet technologies, more people can now

have access to available information more quickly, and make the
world a reachable global village in just a snap of a finger. Once e-
books have been created, it is equally important to implement them
effectively in the classroom. Technology ubased interventions,
specifically in the area of accessing texts, have great promise in
supporting students but high on effective creation and
implementation

 The use of e-books is suitable for use in chemical materials such as

acid-base material, electrochemistry. The everyday phenomena
presented, simulations, and animations, e-books as macro
structures in chemical materials can be presented well so students
can understand the concept of chemistry in a more integrated
manner. The e-book is designed so students can interact with
learning resources independently.

● E-Books are being used in the teaching and learning

process and proving to have effective outcomes. E-Book is
a new product of information technologies that facilitate
reading as well as reading information.

Content 01 Content 02 Content 03

Teaching materials in all
forms are used by teachers
and by students in
implementation of teaching
and learning activities.
Teaching materials are not
only limited to the type of
written material but also in
the form of visual, audio
and audio visual.
• Teaching materials need
special attention, because there
are still many teaching
materials both in terms of
breadth and depth that are not
yet in accordance with the level
of development of students so
they are not easly understood
by students.
• Sjaeful Anwar states that there
are four stages that must be taken
before teaching materials are
worthy of being delivered to
students. The four stages of this
stages are referred to as 4S TMD
(Four Steps Teaching Material
Development) which consists of
the process of selection,
structuring, characteristics and
reduction.

 Conclusion
 This qualitative study reveals that in a developing nation like
Indonesia, the role of e-learning something like e-Book
developed by 4S TMD chemistry learning is a vital. The use of
e-learning in the education system can help in facing the
challenges of the times and increase the substance of quality
and content in education. E-learning in the future has the
goal of developing student-centered learning in terms of the
dominant knowledge and skills of the 21st century. E-book is
one form of e-learning. Simply put, the e-book is a
transferred printed book into an electronic form that is
displayed on computer media.

 This study needs further investigation to justify and validate

conclusions made. Hence, suggestions for further research
are highly encouraged. Having more research participants for
the same study would strengthen data presented about the
actual perceptions of teachers and students with chemistry e-
book developed by 4S TMD use.
