Students often face challenges in understanding botanical terms, which hinders their comprehension of plant diversity topics. Additionally, the lack of available e-modules has led students to rely heavily on internet sources, making the learning process less effective. This study aims to develop contextual e-modules focused on mangrove plants in Telaga Wasti as supplementary teaching materials for plant diversity courses. The research follows a Research and Development (R & D) approach, employing the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) to guide the creation of the e-modules. The research instruments consist of media and material expert validation sheets, student response questionnaire sheets, lecturer interview sheets, and pretest and posttest questions. The study evaluates the e-modules in terms of validity, practicality, and effectiveness. Validation by expert reviewers resulted in a score of 90,32%, categorized as "very valid." A student response questionnaire indicated a 91,1% positive response, classifying the modules as "very practical and effective." Post-test results showed an average score of 71,87, The average N-Gain value is 0,56 (0,30 ≤ N-Gain < 0,70) with the criteria of being moderate or quite effective in improving learning outcomes. In conclusion, the contextual e-modules on mangrove diversity in Telaga Wasti are considered suitable for use in plant diversity courses, the criteria of being valid, practical, and moderate effective for higher education learning environments.
