The procedure of development module refers to the Alessi Trolip model which consists of three main stages, namely 1) plan, 2) design and 3) development. The validity of the module is assessed by media experts, material experts, and practitioners (lecturers on cell biology courses). Data processing used descriptive data analysis techniques. Based on the results of the analysis of data, the validity of the module from media experts is about 4.75 (valid), material experts amounted to 4.5 (very valid) and the validity value of practitioners amounted to 4.52 (very valid).
