BLOGGURU – Alhamdulillah, satu kesyukuran dan kebahagiaan tersendiri hidup dimana perkembangan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi demikian pesatnya hingga memungkinkan mereguk nikmatnya menuntut ilmu dan pembelajaran tanpa batas. Semuanya ini dapat pula terwujud atas berkah waktu luang, kesempatan, dan kesehatan yang baik. Hari ini, Senin (22/9/2025), saat berada di Hotspot Center dalam Lingkungan Ponpes Modern Putri IMMIM Minasatene-Pangkep, penulis menyempatkan mengikuti 3 Free Courses “Digital & Computing” di situs OpenLearn, the Open University yang berpusat di Inggris, dengan kampus utama di Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, Inggris (United Kingdom).

Ketiga kursus pada Menu “Digital & Computing” OpenLearn The Open University ini sudah lama penulis akrabi materi dan sebenarnya merupakan pengulangan (muraja’ah) materi pembelajaran tentang Dunia Komputer dan Literasi Digital.
