- Abstract
This study aims to examine what challenges and opportunities English teachers face in applying High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). Employing a qualitative method, this study collected the data through interviews with English teachers and document study. This study was conducted at Madani Super Camp English Course, West Nusa Tenggara. Four English teachers teaching Senior High School (SMA) level students in the course were taken purposively as the participants of the study. The teachers were interviewed in a semi-structured mode to obtain information on the challenges they faced and opportunities they had in applying HOTS in teaching the English language. Additionally, the documents were teaching materials for SMA. The data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. The findings show that there are a number of challenges the teachers face due to their misconceptions of HOTS, limited capacity in designing HOTS-based materials and activities, and students’ dependent learning styles.
