| Summary: | Thinking capability is the most significant aspect in educational process. As every student has his own distinctive method of thinking, he will then possess his learning concepts. Being a critical thinker means they have to be able to think more critical than any other people, by practicing their skills through comprehending the material and the content of the text. Therefore, this paper discusses the phenomenon of conceptual variations on reading comprehension through Higher Order Thinking Skill (HOTS) strategy in Universitas Kuningan and describes how the HOTS strategy improves the students’ skills in comprehending the academic reading text. The data collected from a classroom observation and interview were analyzed qualitatively by using categories formulated based on theories related to HOTS strategy. As a result, it was found that various concepts on reading comprehension are seen from the C1-C6 phase of HOTS strategy and critical reading. This indicates that most students have higher order thinking skills in comprehending the text in critical reading class. Finally, the findings are expected to be references for English teachers in implementing various teaching strategy. |
