CFSync: buddy study hub

Students frequently encounter barriers to effective learning outside the classroom, including hesitation to ask questions, difficulties in maintaining independent study, and limited opportunities for peer collaboration. These challenges can undermine both academic performance and self-confidence. To address these issues, this study introduces CFSync: Buddy Study Hub, a structured digital platform designed to strengthen peer-to-peer learning. The platform integrates four key features: a Subject Hub for resource access, a Discussion Board for peer interaction, a Progress Tracker to monitor academic development, and Volunteering Options to encourage community engagement. The study examines students’ engagement, perceived usability, and overall satisfaction with CFSync. A mixed-methods design was employed using convenience sampling. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire that combined Likert-scale items with open-ended questions, enabling both quantitative measurement and qualitative insights. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative feedback provided a deeper context by highlighting students’ experiences. By integrating statistical evidence with student perspectives, the findings demonstrate that digital peer-learning environments can effectively enhance academic success and foster greater motivation.
