Knowhub: A Digital Archive of BSIT Resources for Pangasinan State University - Alaminos City Campus

In the digital age, it is essential for the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) department to adapt to advancements in the educational system. Despite this digital transformation, students and faculty still encounter challenges because learning resources are dispersed across platforms such as Google Drives, USB drives, and chat groups. Faculty members also handle various responsibilities and designations, which often prevent them from immediately assisting students and cause delays in accessing important academic materials. To address these issues, KnowHub was proposed to centralize and organize educational content, allowing users to access resources more efficiently. With proposed features such as version control, and secure role-based permissions to protect sensitive academic assets. By consolidating essential information into one platform, the system reduces confusion, minimizes redundancy, and ensures that academic materials are consistently available when needed. This study presents a developmental and descriptive research approach and follows the Agile Model. Interviews were conducted, and purposive sampling was applied to gather evaluations through survey questionnaires completed by students and alumni. The study demonstrate that KnowHub will effectively address existing problems and provides a solution for improving resource management within the BSIT department. The system will not only enhance access to information but also supports more efficient academic workflow, contributing to a more organized and technology-responsive learning environment.
