Summary
Problem solving learning model can improve cognitive and psychomotor aspects and affective aspects. In accordance with the statement of Carolin, et al (2015) that problem solving learning can improve learning achievement in attitude competence. One of the affective aspects developed in education is character values. The problem-solving model is still challenging to apply in the learning process. This statement is reinforced by the opinion of the teacher, Character education is something that is important to form a quality generation (Nurhafidhah, et al, 2018). The value of character education in classroom learning, both in teaching materials and in the learning process, needs to be properly instilled in students, which will later be formed into a character (Nurhafidhah, et al, 2021)
