Abstract

The objective of this research is to investigate the teachers' process in developing HOTS (Higher-Order Thinking Skills) tests and their implementation to assess reading comprehension at SMP Negeri 01 Rejang Lebong. This study employs a qualitative approach with interviews as research instruments. Interviews are used to gather data on the strategies employed by teachers in developing HOTS tests. The researcher used purposive sampling to select samples for this study. Three English teachers at different grade levels at SMP Negeri 01 Rejang Lebong were examined. The researcher selected these three teachers as representatives for creating HOTS test questions at each grade level, namely seventh-grade, eighth-grade, and ninth-grade.
