This research aimed: (1) to develop the online course on learning measurement and evaluation; and (2) to evaluate the appropriateness of the online course on learning measurement and evaluation for primary school teachers. The research sample was 12 interviewees and 36 primary teachers under the Nakhon Pathom Primary Educational Service Area, Office Two. The research instruments included an interview form, a knowledge test and a design ability test on learning measurement and evaluation, an attitude test toward learning management and evaluation, and an opinionnaire on the developed online course. The data were analyzed with percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, and content analysis. The research results showed that the online course on learning measurement and evaluation was developed based on gamification concepts. The quality of the developed online course was assessed at a good level. After experimenting with the sample, knowledge and ability in design learning measurement and evaluation of teachers were higher compared to before learning with a statistical significance at .05. Moreover, the teachers’ attitude toward learning measurement and evaluation was highly positive, and they opined that the developed online course was appropriate for developing knowledge, abilities, and attitudes of teachers at the highest level both overall and in specific aspects.
