This study aims to describe the results of a needs analysis of seventh-grade junior high school students regarding the development of a research-based practicum guide on the topic of Matter and Its Changes. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed through a closed-ended questionnaire distributed online to 149 students from three schools in Bengkulu Province, covering six aspects: the learning process, interest in the material, teaching material conditions, smartphone use, group work habits, and preferences for a practicum guide. Data were analyzed descriptively by calculating the percentage of responses for each item. The results show that science learning remains dominated by lecture methods (59.7%), students experience difficulty memorizing scientific terms (42.3%), and only 49.0% could identify colour change as an example of a chemical change. Students showed high interest in contextual learning (96.0%) and the local Batik Besurek culture (94.7%), and required teaching materials that explain concepts simply (71.8%). In group work, 34.2% of students reported being hindered by members who did not contribute. These findings indicate the need for a contextual, simple practicum guide that structurally trains students' collaboration skills.
