Abstract

The research objectives were 1) to study guidelines for improving traditional meeting rooms into hybrid meeting rooms and 2) to evaluate the quality of hybrid meeting rooms. The researcher used an action research process consisting of four research steps: 1) Planning to improve a traditional meeting room to a hybrid meeting room; 2) Action to improve a traditional meeting room to a hybrid meeting room; 3) Observing to evaluate the quality of the hybrid meeting room; and 4) Reflecting to assess the actual use of the hybrid meeting room. The research tool was an efficiency and effectiveness assessment form. The researcher used purposive sampling of 32 people from the population group, which included the Faculty Senate and the Faculty Senate Office staff of Ramkhamhaeng University. Data analysis used descriptive statistics, including arithmetic mean, percentage, and standard deviation, to analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of hybrid meeting rooms. The results found that 1) improving a standard conference room with a visual presentation and audio amplification system requires improving the visual and sound systems to be relevant to all participants. The visual and audio that occur in the conference room at the venue (on-site) must be transmitted with clear visual and audio signals to remote participants (online). At the same time, participants at the venue must also receive clear visual and sound signals from remote participants. 2) The results of the efficiency and effectiveness of the hybrid meeting room found that overall, the level of opinions on the efficiency and effectiveness of the hybrid meeting room was at a high level.
