ALISS programme update

We’re focusing on quality of information over quantity of

information.

We used A/B testing to help us come to decisions on

our technical work.

We’re almost ready to migrate some of the resources

from old to new ALISS.

We developed a simple chatbot to help someone find

information in Aberdeen about counselling.

Task 1 – the problem

Over the next few months we

will be marketing ALISS and we

want to have a simple and

strong message.

But we’ve an issue…

Task 1

We know what we do!

We know how we do it!

But why?

Task 1

Why?

How does ALISS impact

people’s lives?

• Think from both the searcher and

adder (professional).

• Write down what you think onto post-it

notes.

Task 2 – Our problem

• We are a small team, delivering a national service.

• Developing great information is difficult.

• Keeping information up to date is difficult.

• The path we take now will set us up for our next 3-5

years.

Task 2 – How others do it?

• Wikipedia uses a community of curators to ensure

their information is relevant and up to date.

• Google Maps uses a community of “local guides”

(curators) to ensure their information is relevant

and up to date.

• Yelp uses a community of curators to ensure their

information is relevant and up to date.

Task 2 – ALISS Approach

We are looking to develop a community of curators throughout Scotland to help deliver great local information.

These volunteers will be crowdsourcing our information and this means:

• It will help us meet demand.

• Help with our limited capacity.

• Gain new perspectives.

• Build a community of trust.

• Engage a diverse audience.

Task 2 – Over to you…

1. What do we need to do before we start to engage

the volunteers?

2. How will they work with us?

3. How will we support them?

4. How will they know the difference they make?
