Abstract
This research aimed to develop online learning environment to meet the efficiency criteria of 80/80, study creative thinking skills, compare learning achievement, and examine student satisfaction. The participants were 30 third-year undergraduate students majoring in Computer Education from the Faculty of Education and Human Development at Chaiyaphum Rajabhat University during the academic year 2024. Students attended class once a week for 4 consecutive weeks. This quasi-experimental study collected quantitative data using creative thinking skills assessment forms, achievement tests, and questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics including mean, standard deviation, and t-test to analyze creative thinking skills and learning achievement. The results showed that the efficiency of the online learning environment integrated with the Macro Model teaching technique was 82.92/83.50, higher than the 80/80 criterion. The creative thinking score was 13.87, indicating a good level. Students' post-learning achievement was significantly higher than pre-learning at the .05 level, and overall satisfaction was at the highest level Students were able to practice, analyze, synthesize, and engage in brainstorming and exchange of ideas through activities developed according to the learning management plan, creating opportunities for students to think creatively in problem-solving.
