Abstract
The 21st-century learning paradigm emphasizes students have critical thinking skills, connect knowledge with the practical world, and master information technology. The utilization of technology in learning has shifted the delivery of material using the lecture method to learning using interactive media. One of them is the use of e-modules based on discovery learning. E-modules are electronic modules that require students to construct their knowledge. The used e-modules in the learning process expect to help optimize students^ critical thinking skills. One platform that can use to create e-modules is Wizer.Me. This research aimed to develop an e-module based on the discovery learning model using Wizer.Me to optimize students^ critical thinking skills in 2nd fundamental physics courses with valid and practical criteria. This research uses research and development (R&D) methods with McKenney^s development model. The data in this research are needs analysis data, validation data, and practicality data. The research instrument consisted of analysis sheets, validity, and practicality questionnaires. The data analysis technique uses descriptive percentages. The research results show that e-modules based on the discovery learning model use Wizer.Me to optimize students^ critical thinking skills with valid and practical criteria.
