Abstrak: Dewasa ini, critical thinking atau yang lebih dikenal dengan keterampilan berpikir kritis menjadi topik yang sering dibahas karena merupakan kemampuan yang mutlak dimiliki di era milenial ini. Terlebih pada bidang pendidikan, mulai dari tingkat sekolah dasar, sekolah menengah, sampai di tingkat pendidikan tinggi. Pendidikan sudah tidak relevan lagi jika masih mengajarkan anak dengan sistem menghafal materi-materi sehingga pembelajaran hanya fokus pada mengingat saja. Padahal, yang lebih penting adalah peserta didik memahami, menganalisis, mengevaluasi, atau bahkan menciptakan berbagai macam pemecahan masalah dari berbagai masalah yang ada pada materi-materi pembelajaran. Kreativitas merupakan hal yang sangat penting di sini. Melatih anak untuk berpikir kritis terhadap sesuatu dan menawarkan solusi yang masuk akal perlu dijadikan titik fokus pembelajaran bahkan penilaian. Oleh karena itu, mengingat pentingnya keterampilan berpikir kritis ini, peneliti mencoba untuk memaparkan karakteristik keterampilan berpikir kritis pada pembelajaran Mata Kuliah Fonologi yang dilaksanakan oleh mahasiswa semester II. Karakteristik ini meliputi soal yang digunakan dalam evaluasi pembelajaran dan juga hasil evaluasi yang didapatkan. Dengan demikian, diharapkan dapat menghasilkan gambaran keterampilan berpikir kritis pada pengaplikasian pembelajaran di kelas.  Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan masih rendahnya keterampilan berpikir kritis mahasiswa ketika mengerjakan soal-sal HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills). Kata Kunci: berpikir kritis, evaluasi pembelajaran, HOTS   Abstract: Nowadays, critical thinking or better known as critical thinking skills is a topic that is often discussed because it is an absolute ability to have in this millennial era. Especially in the field of education, starting from the elementary school level, secondary school, up to the level of higher education. Education is no longer relevant if it still teaches children with a system of memorizing materials so learning only focuses on remembering it. In fact, what is more important is students understand, analyze, evaluate, or even create various kinds of problem solving from various problems that exist in learning materials. Creativity is very important here. Train children to think critically about something and offer solutions that make sense need to be the focal point of learning and even assessment. Therefore, given the importance of this critical thinking skill, the researcher tries to explain the characteristics of critical thinking skills in the learning of Phonology Courses conducted by the second semester students. These characteristics include the questions used in the evaluation of learning and also the evaluation results obtained. Thus, it is expected to produce a picture of critical thinking skills in the application of learning in the classroom. The results of this study indicate that students' critical thinking skills are still low when working on HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skills) questions. Keywords: critical thinking, evaluation of learning, HOTS
