Siti Rahmawati (2025). The Effect of High Order Thinking Skill (HOTS)
Towards Student’s Reading Skill at the Eleventh Grade of SMAN 10
Pandeglang in Academic Year 2025/2026.
This study aims to determine the effect of High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) on the reading skills of eleventh-grade students at SMAN 10 Pandeglang in the 2025/2026 academic year. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method and a control group design. The study population was all eleventh-grade students at SMAN 10 Pandeglang, while the sample size was 60 students, divided into two groups: the experimental class and the control class. The research instrument was a HOTS-based reading skills test, administered in pretest and posttest formats.
The results showed that the average posttest score for the experimental class was 68.17, while the average posttest score for the control class was 66.83. Data analysis using an independent t-test indicated a difference in reading skill outcomes between the experimental and control classes. Thus, it can be concluded that the implementation of HOTS has an effect on the reading skills of eleventh-grade students at SMAN 10 Pandeglang.
