Online learning that was carried out by schools during the COVID-19 pandemik made teachers have to come up with bright, more innovative ideas so that the learning carried out was by the desired goals.

The collected data is then validated using triangulation techniques to determine the relevance and suitability of the data. Through the results of in-depth interviews, it was found that the open-ended approach was very helpful for students in understanding science learning. Besides, according to the results of the questionnaire, an open-ended approach can be applied in learning in the COVID-19 pandemic.
