Abstract

Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) are essential in developing students’ critical and analytical abilities, particularly through reading activities. Many English textbooks still lack adequate integration of HOTS-based tasks, creating a gap between curriculum expectations and actual practice. This study aimed to analyze the distribution of HOTS in the reading exercises of the “English for Nusantara” textbook for eighth grade junior high school students. Employing a descriptive qualitative method and content analysis, data were collected from five chapters of the textbook used at SMP Negeri 1 Gunungsitoli Barat. A checklist based on Bloom’s Taxonomy was used to identify HOTS elements. The findings revealed that only 23 out of 116 reading exercises (19.6%) contained HOTS components. The most common skill was analyzing (C4), followed by creating (C6) and evaluating (C5). These results indicate limited integration of HOTS in the textbook, which highlights the need for improvement in English instructional materials.

Abstract

This study focuses on a descriptive analysis of the level of reading comprehension of PPA IO-0130 Omasio students in understanding tourism texts. This study aims to explore students' abilities in understanding various aspects of tourism texts, including literal, inferential, and critical comprehension. A qualitative descriptive approach was used to collect and analyze data from essay tests and interviews involving 16 student respondents. The findings of the study revealed that the majority of students (87.5%) showed a very good level of literal comprehension, where they were able to identify and recall factual information stated explicitly in the text. In addition, 93.75% of students showed a very good level of inferential comprehension, reflecting their ability to infer and understand implicit meanings in the text. At the critical comprehension level, 93.75% of students achieved a very good score, indicating their ability to evaluate and analyze information in depth, including distinguishing between true and false information and identifying moral messages implied in the text. This study also identified several factors that affect students' reading comprehension, including limited vocabulary, inadequate mastery of grammar, and low reading interest. Many students report difficulty understanding the complex sentence structures and unfamiliar vocabulary often found in formal tourism texts. Lack of interest in reading further exacerbates these challenges, especially when students are not exposed to texts that are relevant or interesting to their daily lives or academic interests.
