Summary:This paper looks at the digital transformation past, current and future digital transformation plan at University Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). As a university that values excellence in teaching and learning practices, USIM, SIMPLE is an improved and structured online template for lecturers develop digital teaching and learning content easily. It comes in a package with a guideline on how to use it with minimal IT skills. SIMPLE is developed using open source – Moodle as the platform. The characteristics of Blended Mode rubrics such as Information, Content/Resources, Activities, and Assessment are adapted in this template. Islamic values are inculcated and embedded into all disciplines of knowledge. USIM embraces a holistic approach towards the delivery of knowledge, which unites revelation sciences (Naqi knowledge) and the rational sciences (Aqli knowledge). The business USIM needs to provide good teaching and give additional learning support with online course materials and online resources. The targeted audiences will be using the MOOCs.
