Abstract: One of the goals of learning mathematics is to improve problem solving skills. However, problem solving skills in Indonesia are still relatively low. Low problem solving ability is also influenced by an active and independent attitude in learning that must be owned by students. This study aims to determine and describe the effect of Problem Based Learning (PBL) with the help of Desmos visual media on students’ problem solving skills and self-regulated learning. This research is a quasi-experiment with pretest-posttest group design. The study population included all grade X students in one of the State High Schools in Wakatobi Regency. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, with class XA as the experimental group that received Problem Based Learning learning assisted by Desmos visual media and XB as the control group that received learning with a scientific approach. Based on the results of data analysis, it shows that there is a significant average difference between the problem solving ability and self-regulated learning of students in the experimental and control classes. This shows that there is an effect of Problem-Based Learning assisted by Desmos visual media on students’ problem solving and self-regulated learning simultaneously and partially.
