Good results from education must be accompanied by effective learning. Effective learning one of which is influenced by the use of teaching materials. Preliminary investigation data at SMPN 25 Padang show that there is no teaching material in the form of an e-module that can visualize the subject matter as a whole. Based on the results of the questionnaire, it is known that 67.16% of students have difficulty understanding the concepts of the respiratory system and the excretory system. This causes the low learning outcomes for students, so teaching materials are needed that can assist in visualizing the subject matter as a whole. This study aims to produce an e-module based on problem based learning using adobe flash professional CS6 on the material of the human respiratory and excretory systems for students of class VIII that is valid, practical, and effective. This type of research is the Plomp model development research which consists of three phase, namely the initial preliminary research phase, the development or prototyping phase, and the assessment phase. The research subjects are students of class VIII SMPN 25 Padang Academic Year 2021-2022. The research data were obtained from validity, practicality, and effectiveness tests. The validity test data was obtained through a validation sheet by lecturers as validators. Practical test data was obtained from the results of the questionnaire response analysis of teachers and students. Effectiveness test data were obtained from multiple choice question sheets for assessing cognitive competence, observation sheets for assessing affective competence and psychomotor competence, and essay question sheets for assessing students creative thinking skills. The results of validation by validators on the e-module based on problem-based learning show an average value of 86.35% (very valid). The results of the practicality assessment by science teachers showed an average of 90.87% (very practical) and the results of the practicality assessment by students obtained an average value of 89.25% (very practical). The results of the effectiveness test from the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects of students showed that the problem based learning based e-module was very effective and the value of creative thinking skills obtained an average of 74.24 (creative). Thus, it can be concluded that the problem based learning based e-module developed is very valid, very practical, very effective, and can train creative thinking skills.
