Why this helps

Peer mentorship happens organically but you miss it. You don't know who's helping whom. Opportunity to recognize and formalize mentors gets lost.

  • Bi-weekly report identifies natural mentors before you miss the opportunity to recognize them
  • Peer-level recognition matters more than instructor praise for adult learners
  • Builds organic mentorship program from actual helping patterns, not recruitment
  • Gives introverted learners (like neurodivergent founders) clear role to play without formal programs

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Coassemble and Stack exchange to Notis.
  • 2Ask Notis: 'Every other Wednesday, show me all Stack exchange comments from my learners, sorted by helpfulness (most answers/upvotes first).'
  • 3Set trigger to bi-weekly cron.
  • 4Route to Slack or email for your weekly team sync.
  • 5Use the list to recognize and encourage helpful learners.

Questions about this workflow

Can I filter by learner group?

Yes. Tell Notis to show only comments from specific cohorts or skill levels.

How is 'helpfulness' measured?

Comment score, reply count, and Stack exchange upvotes indicate engagement.

Should I reach out to every helpful learner?

No. Use the list for awareness. Reach out to a few standouts you want to mentor formally.
