Develop a problem-based learning teaching module for the topic of carbon compounds for physical and online classrooms and 2. Identify the suitability of the teaching module to be applied in the physical classroom and online lesson. This study utilized ADDIE instructional model in constructing the module. The module was constructed according to the chemistry national curriculum on the topic of carbon compounds. The validation of the module has a remarkable comment in terms of fulfilment of objectives, suitability of method of delivery the module content and the relevance of the problem used to sharpen student’s cognitive skills.
