Practical media is needed during The Covid-19 pandemic. This learning media should be used to maintain the students learning process. This study aims to analyse student participation in the stages of a scientific approach through an android-based E-book. Following the 4D model during media development, three experts validated the diffraction and polarisation E-book. The E-book contains videos and animations to observe, questions links to accommodate the stages of asking questions, student worksheets to accommodate the stages of trying and reasoning, PhET Simulation, communicating links to accommodate the stages of communicating, simple evaluation, and quiz. The participation rate was obtained from 27 students in 11th grade in Mojokerto, East Java, Indonesia. The results show that the diffraction and polarisation E-Book are feasible and excellent. All students complete the stages of observing, asking, and trying. Students can reason well through the experiments that have been carried out. Unfortunately, student participation in the communicating stage is not good. They felt they communicated what they understood by writing down the worksheet, so they did not fill the communicating link. © 2024 Author(s).
