Abstract

This research aimed to: 1) develop a learning activity package on Buddhist doctrines and the teachings of various religions using the Systematic Higher-Order 
Thinking Process (GPAS 5 Steps) for Prathom Suksa 5 students to meet the efficiency criterion of 80/80, 2) compare students’ learning achievement before and after learning, and 3) investigate students’ satisfaction with the developed learning activity package. The study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 40 Prathom Suksa 5 students from Kalasinpittayasai School selected through simple random sampling. The research instruments included lesson plans, a learning activity package, an achievement test, and a satisfaction questionnaire. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, E1/E2 efficiency index, and dependent t-test.
The findings revealed that: 
1) the developed learning activity package achieved an efficiency of 83.63/85.50, exceeding the criterion of 80/80
2) students’ post-learning achievement was significantly higher than their pre-learning achievement at the .01 level
3) students’ overall satisfaction with the learning activity package was at the highest level ( = 4.57, S.D. = 0.18)
