Where once the case book used to be a standard piece of equipment and decor for law offices, modern law offices rely on their tech stack to get things done. So, we have begun assembling this database for legal aid organizations to use as a springboard for their research on what technology product they could use to complete gaps in their tech stack or to replace aging solutions.
We are heading south to Florida today to meet community member Josh Lazar, the founder and Chief Everything Officer of TechThinkTankLLC. After more than 25 years working for other organizations, Josh recently decided to focus full time on TechThinkTank. Josh now spends his time helping legal aid organizations with RFP assistance, IT and Cybersecurity assessments, and software development projects. His goal is to make the marketplace a better place.
LASSB is soliciting proposals for a redesign of its current website: https://legalaidofsb.org/ and monthly maintenance. The new website should create an engaging user experience, offer an uncluttered design, facilitate organic website traffic, be designed for conversion, and mobile use, enable fast load time, build a strong brand identity, ADA compliant and culturally compliant competent sites. Expected users will be potential clients, job applicants, and LASSB volunteers.
Testing Metrics
Once you have identified what you are testing, you must determine what metrics to collect. Your metrics will impact the type of test you conduct. Below are metrics you can collect, broken down by quality components which were introduced earlier.
Learnability: How easily a user can accomplish a basic task the first time on the site.
Because everyone has a right to a safe home, Northeast Legal Aid (NLA) is shaking things up with their new website UpToCode. Through a series of guided interviews, the free service helps tenants do the following:
Discover their rights under the law;
Report problems to their landlord, a city housing inspector, or the court; and
Get a court order to enforce repairs or to get compensation for illegal landlord actions.
Additionally, tenants can find answers to their questions, read the code, and document the issues with their home.
Self Test/Self Audit
Scenario: You want to test your site's usability, but you have limited time and resources.
What/Why: A self-audit can help you find usability problems. By looking at your site objectively, using the Heuristic Evaluation form to find potential problems, writing questions and testing yourself you can easily surface issues that impact your site. See tech tips in rectangular boxes throughout this guide for additional resources.

We are so excited that Melissa Afterman of Learn Ergo will be leading a session on office ergonomics on Tuesday, May 16th at 3 pm EDT.
During the webinar, Melissa will be doing up to four live assessments of office spaces using photos submitted by members of the community. If you are interested in having your workspace assessed, use the link below to submit photos by May 5th. (Please note that it is not possible to assess all submitted spaces so submission of photos does not guarantee assessment).
Please note that this webinar will not be recorded.
Heuristic Evaluation
Scenario: You want to compare your website's interface against a set of widely accepted principles with a few people to assist.
What/Why: Heuristic evaluation involves a small set of evaluators examining an interface and judging its compliance with usability principles or "heuristics". Use a heuristic evaluation form to help you identify key problems (form attached). According to Nielsen, just 5 evaluators can detect 85% of errors with this method!
"Accessibility" is a box to check off when launching a website, but what does it actually mean, why does it matter, and how do I actually achieve an "accessible" site?
