So this research has the purpose of developing an e-module based on the student learning style to facilitate study during the pandemic. Types of this research are Research and Development (R&D) that use the 4D model. 4D models are defined, designed, developed, and disseminated. The participants are composed of 103 students of grade 8th to analyze types of learning style and 20 of grade 8 students to analyze student's responses toward e-module. The types of data in this study are qualitative and quantitative data—the Collecting data in this study uses a questionnaire by Google form to analyze learning style. Based on the research, the student tends to use auditory and kinesthetic learning, E-module gets 81% for validity test with excellent categorize. The average results for students' responses toward e-module are 87.68%, with excellent categorize that means the developed e-module is practical to use and facilitates the independent learning process.
