This paper is a report on the findings of research and development into the instructional model 'enhancing Thai Generation Z' creative thinking with Scratch through the spiral mode. The purposes of this study are: 1) to develop; 2) to evaluate and gain experts' opinion on the proposed model, adapted from a creative thinking spiral first used in Scratch (Resnick, 2007a), based on Thailand's challenges. The proposed spiral model consists of ten steps: analyse, inspire, educate, imagine, create, experience, share, reflect, evaluate and imagine. The research was conducted through a semi-structured interview methodology whereby the questions were prepared and circulated to nine experts in advance. All of them agreed that using the spiral model, and by extension, Scratch, is an appropriate way to develop and improve creative thinking among Generation Z Thais.
