I am honoured to announce that Professor Pierre Dillenbourg has joined @Opigno’s Advisory Board.
Professor Emeritus at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (#EPFL), Pierre is internationally recognised as one of the leading experts in learning technologies and human-computer interaction, and a pioneer in the field of digital learning.
His insight and experience will help guide Opigno’s vision for the future of enterprise learning in the age of AI.
We believe the next generation of learning platforms will be agentic and hyper-contextualised — powered by AI agents that continuously adapt to both individual learners and organisational contexts, enabling faster and more effective learning.
In a world evolving at unprecedented speed, transformation cannot happen without training.
Our mission at Opigno is therefore simple and ambitious: turn corporate training into a decisive competitive advantage for our customers.
Welcome to the journey, Pierre! Looking forward to shaping the future of digital training together.🚀
👉 For those who haven’t seen it yet, we recently released a study on the application of AI in corporate learning, focusing on the specific and highly demanding context of the pharmaceutical industry. Feel free to reach out if you would like to learn more.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) rapidly emerged as a vital platform for accessing education and building skills when traditional learning was disrupted. Discussion forums (DF) usually play an important role in bridging the gap between the instructor and learners, by building a community that enables interaction, problem solving, and better understanding. Despite its advantages, students’ low engagement still remains a challenge.
To fix this problem and facilitate collaborative learning, IITGN-associated researchers developed the Moderator-Augmented Extended Discussion Forum (MAX-DF), based on the Learner-Centric MOOC (LCM) Model’s Learner eXperience Interaction (LxI) component, and other interventions. This redesigned forum was implemented in an actual online course that was conducted in IIT Bombay. After analysing course logs and collecting survey data with advanced modelling techniques, the team was able to identify the key factors that influence forum use.
Results from this experiment shed light on how an improved DF increased learner participation, contributing to higher course completion rates and motivation. The study also found that performance expectancy, self-efficacy, and perceived uniqueness of the forum were prominent drivers of students’ desire to engage.
Such outcomes of practical relevance, can enable other MOOC platforms and universities to adopt this design, making quality education easily accessible, provide support to self-learners, and reduce dropout rates around the world.
The team includes Prof Sameer Sahasrabudhe, Dr Anchal Garg, Prof Daisy Wadhwa, and Prof Natasha Maria Gomes.
