Mentorship Idea #18

Closed iamjessklein closed 7 months ago

iamjessklein commented 8 years ago

I am personally interested in identifying mentorship opportunities using the bot. I discussed this with @cowboy and one way that he suggested I tackle this is by creative a report using the existing data.

Specifically I am imagining creating a report using the list of existing data to pair those who want to learn with those who have expertise.

Thoughts? I'm interested in prototyping this. @tkellen @cowboy @boazsender

Interest:​

​1.​ I really dislike this. Please do not ask me about this. ​2.​ I would like to avoid this if possible. ​3.​ I have no feelings for or against this. ​4.​ I like this. ​5.​ I love this. Please ask me about this!

​Experience:​

​1.​ I have no experience with this. ​2.​ I have some experience but I am not yet confident with this. ​3.​ I have some experience and feel confident with this. ​4.​ I have lots of experience and can teach others this. ​5.​ I would feel comfortable having a team of people rely on me for this.

Given these scales, what if we created a report that found all people with an interest of 4-5 for a given expertise and suggested those with experience of 4-5 act as mentors for those with experience of 1-2?

👍 that sounds like a perfect first report.

My follow up question is : who is interested in mentoring? I'm taking a look at the database and there is a "Coaching" expertise under the category of "Education". I think that we should either use the interest ( 4- 5) and experience (4 - 5) as an indicator for mentorship ability or we should make a mentorship expertise under Education. Thoughts?
