This study aims to identify the characteristics of an online tutorial program (tuton) based on the discussion of problem solving that has been developed in the physics learning strategy course (PEFI4201). The study was conducted in 2017 using the Research & Development method which includes the stages of define, design, develop, dissemination. The limited test includes the readability of the tuton program conducted on 3 science-physics teacher students. More extensive field trials were carried out by implementing a problem-based tuton program in the tuton class in 2017.1 which involved 20 students of Science-Physics teachers who actively participated in the tuton. The results showed that the online tutorial program (tuton) based on the discussion of problem solving had the following characteristics: The results showed that the Tuton program based on discussion of problem solving learning had the following characteristics: (a) aims to provide learning assistance through tuton to be able to improve problem solving skills, plan learning skills, and mastery of concepts; (b) tuton program components include the design of tutorial activities, tutorial program units, main and supporting initiation materials, problem solving discussion materials, and tuton assignments; (c) based on behavioristic, cognitive, cybernetic, neuroscience, constructivism, andragogy theories, problem solving; (d) tuton oriented which emphasizes discussion of problem solving; (e) use assessments that measure the ability of problem solving, learning planning skills, and mastery of concepts. Observation of the implementation shows that the implementation of the tuton went well. The observation of enforceability includes the implementation of the contents of the appropriate initiation material according to the module, the interaction between the participants tuton describes the discussion of problem solving learning, describes the coherent weekly activities, describe the task of solving the problem as a whole
