This paper addresses about designing virtual laboratory for chemistry subject, acid, base and salt. Discussion involved on theoretical framework modelling where it divided into three parts that is analysis, design and, development and evaluation. For the second objective, researcher will view on constructivism-cognitive ness-contextual lifecycle model where it will be used for virtual laboratory for the chemistry subject ( VLab-CHEM ). This model will define about education media, how to measure content, authoring program and systematic instructional design. Others objective are defining Instructional Design (ID) model ( VLab-CHEM ) where it include virtual laboratory modules. ID model focused on learning and teaching aspects and science education, education process and by using multimedia interactive module. While designing the development of VLab-CHEM, researcher has used approach in learning theory such as constructivism-cognitive-contextual. Concept through learning-bydoing, contextual education, simulation, 3D animation and real time animation to create 3D virtual based on reality, will be added in the VLab-CHEM.
