E-Module: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever was implemented for seven days. Finally, the data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed rank test and dependent paired t-test with level of significance p<0.05. Results: We found that e-module was a promising intervention as learning media to increase the knowledge (p=0.02) and motivation (p=0.002). Conclusion: E-Module as learning media can be a promising intervention to increase the knowledge and learning motivation among nursing students. It can be suggested to universities to consider E-Module to support the learning process.
