ABSTRACT

Rapid changes in global education influence aspects of education, especially in Indonesia, where high-order thinking skills (HOTS) have become a current educational issue. As we know, in Indonesia, the 2013 curriculum is concerned with high-order thinking skills (HOTS) because it provides students with critical thinking. The goal of this descriptive study is to identify the barriers that EFL teachers face when designing high-order thinking skills (HOTS) exercises at the senior high school level. In this case, the researcher is concerned about the barriers teachers face in designing their exercises for assessment. This study used the qualitative method and made use of the stimulated interview to collect the data. The research participant is an EFL teacher at a senior high school. The finding describes some of the factors that teachers consider when designing high-order thinking skills (HOTS) exercises, specifically the teacher, students, and support aspects. Hence the conclusion that teachers must upgrade themselves with the new HOTS test that attracts students and improves their concept and understanding of HOTS tests. Then the government must support teachers’ experience and knowledge by providing more training and socialization.
