The purpose of this research was to improve students' physics problem solving skills through the implementation of PO2E2W learning model assisted PhET media on physics learning. This research used one group pre-test and post-test design at 64 students academic year 2017/2018. Students physics problem solving skills were measured by using Problem Solving Skills Assessment Sheet (PSSAS). Data analysis technique used Paired t-test, n-gain, and Independent t-test. The result of this research proved that: (1) there was improvement of student physics problem solving skill at = 5%, (2) average score of n-gain physics problem solving skill 0.81 (high category), (3) there was no difference (consistency) n-gain students physics problem solving skills in all groups, and (4) students response were very positive toward the implementation of PO2E2W learning model assisted PhET media. Therefore the PO2E2W learning model assisted PhET media had been proven to be effective in improving the physics problem solving skills of senior high school students. The implication of PO2E2W learning model with PhET media study can be used as a solution to improve physics problem solving skills of senior high school students. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
