LISA ChatGPT
Well-being and mental health are fundamental components of children's development and their educational success. Yet, more than one in four children face challenges such as neurodevelopmental and learning disorders (like Specific Learning Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, etc.), mood disorders (like anxiety, depression), or emotional and behavioral disorders.
In the absence of detection and intervention, these challenges often lead to severe consequences for the child and those around them: lack of interest, dropping out, bullying, violence, suicidal actions...
The LISA research-action program provides educational stakeholders with tools to identify, understand, and collaborate, to support each child, both in and outside of school, based on their strengths and needs. Co-constructed by teachers, families, researchers, clinicians, and other educational actors, LISA develops a community, a training program, and a digital platform.
LISA is originally developed and prototyped in France, initiated by iféa, a network of innovative schools, and the Learning Planet Institute. LISA is developed Under the supervision of its scientific committee, including Ariel B. Lindner, Bennett L. Leventhal, Richard Delorme, Bruno Falissard, Caroline Huron, Yasser Kazhaal, and others; a dedicated team including Anirudh Krishnakumar, Naima Page, Kseniia Konischeva, Arno Klein, and others; and key partner institutions including the Child Mind Institute, INSERM U1284, CléPsy, and the Robert Debré Hospital in Paris.
The project has received support from the French government to be deployed in 200 schools within the Académie de Créteil, Académie de Paris, Académie de Versaille, and the Mission laïque française.
LISA aims to provide stakeholders in the education of children and adolescents with evidence-based, actionable, and accessible training and guidance in the process of identifying and supporting their unique strengths and needs. As part of this effort, LISA is building a database of resources, Lisapedia.
While all Lisapedia content will be carefully written, reviewed, and validate by a scientific and editorial committee, this page represents a technological proof of concept of combining structured knowledge from field experts with generative AI to draft content, which can then be reviewed and edited by experts.

I am a 2nd grade teacher. I am looking for suggestions on how to support my student according to their strengths and needs. You are a child and adolescent psychiatrist. Your role is to provide guidance to a 2nd grade teacher on how to support student according to their strengths and needs. My student has been assessed for the following dimension: Learning Strategies - adopting and developing strategies for learning new material: Learning strategies are the full spectrum of creative, flexible approaches and tools for the acquisition of new knowledge. It includes all facets of learning in school and extra-curricular settings, as well as how one approaches learning life skills at home and in the community (e.g., music, dance, sports, game playing, cooking, cleaning, community social functions, riding bicycles, magic tricks, etc.) For skillful adaptation, effective and efficient learning strategies must vary with development, experience, and the nature of the learning task. Examples of learning strategies include changing oral tasks into written tasks, breaking large problems into a sequence of small problems, etc. <h3><slot data-nx-ref="value-0"></slot></h3> <slot data-nx-ref="value-0-desc"></slot> <h3><slot data-nx-ref="value-50"></slot></h3> <slot data-nx-ref="value-50-desc"></slot> <h3><slot data-nx-ref="value-100"></slot></h3> <slot data-nx-ref="value-100-desc"></slot> His/her profile is as follows: Learning strategies disrupted by rigidity, excessive speed, and/or meticulousness: While intensely interested in learning, these individuals feel compelled to be literal and perfect with limited flexibility in the use of multiple learning strategies.

- Overview of the challenges associated with this profile
Challenges | How they manifest |
---|---|
Rigidity | The student may only find comfort in one way of learning and completing tasks which can limit their ability to accept various learning methods. |
Excessive Speed/Meticulousness | The student may rush through tasks or spend too much time trying to perfect details and miss out on the overall learning objective. |
Frustration & Dissatisfaction | As perfection is hard to achieve, the student may experience dissatisfaction and frustration, which can further hinder their learning experience. |
- Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Strategy title | Description & Efficiency | Implementation Steps | Parameters to Monitor and Adjust |
---|---|---|---|
Flexible Learning Approach | Promote adaptive learning styles to overcome rigidity. This encourages the student to approach tasks differently for better learning outcomes. | - Introduce different methods to perform tasks. - Let the student choose the method himself once in a while. - Show him the advantages of trying other approaches. | Monitor the student's acceptance of new strategies, evaluate their effectiveness, and adjust as needed. |
Manage Speed: Time Management Skills | To manage the propensity to rush through tasks, teaching time management skills is beneficial.
