Abstract
Students nowadays are required to master the Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) which are related to cognitive competencies. Therefore, this research is aimed to investigate and analyze the cognitive competences assessment instruments. The sampling data was obtained from the 11th Grade English Classes of Senior High School in Bekasi via online classes during Covid-19 pandemic and was analyzed by using a descriptive qualitative method. Based on the data gained, it revealed the findings as follows: 1) The HOTS (ranging from C4-C6) assessment is not yet applied in the 11th grade senior high school, as the assessment instruments are still on the LOTS (ranging from C1 - C3). 2). The assessment instruments applied were still based on paper and pen, and far from practical matters. By that, it can be concluded the need of current HOTS assessment instruments should include the practical basis. Furthermore, the present research hopefully can be beneficial for related roles in educational levels specifically for Senior High School programs. In addition, this research hopefully can guide assessors assessing cognitive competences assessment instruments in order the quality of assessment instruments can be more advanced in the future. Finally, the assessment instruments are essential aspects in the teaching and learning process to know how further the students can acquire the knowledge, skills, or competences in classrooms.
