Chemistry e-modules based on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) are teaching materials based on electronic learning models or e-learning as a solution during the Covid-19 pandemic for students to learn independently. The purpose of this study is to assess PBL-based academic e-modules from the aspect of validity and feasibility in achieving its learning objectives. The approach used is development research according to the Thiagarajan model. The results showed that at the define stage, an analysis was conducted on the Curriculum 13 (K13) module of the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) with the material “chemical bonding” of Grade X at SMAN 3 Lembar. Furthermore, a module designed using an electronic display integrated with the PBL model was done at the design stage. Meanwhile, the expert validation result obtained an average of 0.86, categorized as valid and feasible criteria at the development stage. The result of students’ responses obtained 72.73% (good criteria), and the result of the chemistry teachers’ responses obtained 88.06% (very good criteria). The PBL-based Chemistry e-module on chemical bonding material is feasible as a Chemistry learning solution for Class X of SMAN 3 Lembar.
