Inactive Learner Re-Engagement Scout
Every other Tuesday: list of learners who haven't logged in but are asking questions on Stack exchange. Your hook to bring them back.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Comments
Tool to retrieve comments from a specified stack exchange site. use when you need to list comments with optional filters and sorting.
Why this helps
Tracking who's gone silent in your course is manual. By the time you notice, they've ghosted completely. Dropped balls turn into lost learners.
- Proactive alerts prevent the 'they disappeared and I didn't notice' moment
- Finding learners active elsewhere gives you concrete re-engagement hooks
- Bi-weekly batching means one recovery effort, not constant manual checking
- Saves learners who are still interested but got stuck or overwhelmed
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect both integrations to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'Every other Tuesday at 9 AM, show me users who haven't logged into my Coassemble course in 2+ weeks but have Stack exchange comments in that time.'
- 3Set trigger to bi-weekly cron.
- 4Route results to your Slack or email for weekly learner check-in.
- 5Use the list to reach out with targeted re-engagement (mentioning their Stack exchange questions as hook).
Questions about this workflow
How do I know who to prioritize for follow-up?
Notis shows question count and topics. More questions = more engagement signal to work with.
What if someone just needs a break?
The report is for awareness only. You decide who to reach out to and how.
Can I customize the inactivity threshold?
Yes. Tell Notis to flag learners inactive for 1 week, 2 weeks, or 30 days.
