Abstract
This research is motivated by the low ability of students in problem solving, while the demands of 21st century education encourage each individual to have special skills, one of which is problem solving skills. The use of teaching materials in the teaching and learning process can affect the process of students in solving a problem, one of which is when students are faced with physics problems. This study aims to develop learning modules on work and energy materials by integrating STEM aspects with SRL to train students^ problem solving skills. The SRL agent in this module is created to guide students in the independent learning process. The method used in this research is MMR (mixed method research) with a sequential exploratory design. In this study through three stages of research, namely the qualitative stage used when obtaining data related to analysis of the form of the module to be developed. The second stage is the learning module development stage and the last stage, the quantitative stage, is used to obtain data related to the feasibility (validity) of the modules that have been made to practice problem solving skills. The instruments used in this research are the instrument of feasibility test (module validity), and the instrument of readability test of the module. The results showed that the STEM-SRL-based work and energy module was feasible to be used to train students^ problem solving skills.
