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.

View prompt

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:

Reading - cognitive and mechanical elements of reading comprehension: Reading is the ability to decode written symbols for purposes of communication and learning. While reading most commonly focuses on symbols referred to as "letters" or "characters" from alphabets, in fact, decoding any symbols is a form of reading, including symbols such as logos, flags, and other devices. Reading most languages requires understanding of components of writing including grammar, syntax, punctuation, sentences, paragraphs etc.

His/her profile is as follows:

Reading disrupted by excessive speed and/or meticulousness: Some individuals not only insist on the perfect presentation of the letters or other symbols in order to "read" them, when they do read, they insist that each and every symbol be identified, decoded, and read. This slows reading and often misses broad or integrated interpretations of written messages. Similarly, rapid, imprecise "reading" interferes with the comprehension of written language.

Create a guide that I can use and share to best support my student.

The guide MUST have the following structure:


1. Overview of the challenges associated with this profile

Present this section as a markdown table with 2 columns:
- Challenges,
- How they manifest.

2. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student

In this section, include 3 to 5 strategies. Each strategy must have:
- A title,
- A brief description and why it is efficient,
- Specific implementation steps,
- Parameters to monitor and adjust.

Present this information in a markdown table with 4 columns.

Each strategy must be sustainable and easy to implement in the classroom, and lead to this student nurturing his strengths and building resilience.

3. Do and don'ts

List common mistakes to avoid and best practices to follow when supporting this student.

Present this information in a markdown table with 2 columns.

4. Further reading and research

List resources that can help me learn more about this profile, as well as a choice of keywords to use in my own research.

Be concise and use simple language. Prefer using bullet points and/or markdown tables instead of long text paragraphs.
  1. Overview of the challenges associated with this profile
ChallengesHow they manifest
Overemphasis on detailStudent may fixate on each individual symbol or letter, impacting overall comprehension of the text
Racing through readingRapid reading may lead to skipping over key information and lack of comprehension
ImpulsivityThe student may rush through reading tasks without taking the time for proper understanding
Difficulty with broad interpretationsBecause of focusing on minutiae, the student may have trouble understanding the broader context of the text
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Strategy TitleBrief Description and Why It's EfficientImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor and Adjust
Guided readingGuided reading provides teacher guidance during reading. This allows immediate feedback and correction, and fosters resilienceAssign reading in small groups or one-on-one, discuss text before - during - after reading, prompt for predictions, ask open-ended questionsMonitor the student's comprehension and speed, adjust reading material based on complexity
Pause and reflect techniquesEncourage the student to pause after a certain interval or page for reflection. This can help ground them and improve comprehensionImplement a system like a timer or bookmark to trigger pausing; after pausing, ask the student to summarise or draw what they just readMonitor the frequency and length of pauses, adjust as the student's reading pace and comprehension improve
Use a reading trackerA reading tracker helps isolate individual lines and can aid comprehension by focusing the student's attentionGet a reading tracker or use a ruler or bookmark, model how to use it, ask the student to use it during independent or shared readingMonitor the student's comprehension and confidence, adjust the use of the tracker based on their comfort and efficiency
  1. Do's and Don'ts
Do'sDon'ts
Encourage and praise resilience and perseveranceDon't rush the student or put pressure on them to increase their reading speed
Tailor reading material to the student's interests to motivate themDon't use homogeneous material that might bore the student
Foster a safe learning environment where errors are considered part of the learning processDon't highlight mistakes as failures
