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 12th grade math 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 12th grade math teacher on how to support student according to their strengths and needs.

My student has been assessed for the following dimension:

Writing - cognitive and mechanical elements of written expression: Writing is the graphical representation of ideas that consists of two separate and distinct actions. The first is the cognitive process of changing an idea into the symbols (letters, characters, or other) in preparation for writing. The second is the motor process of producing the "written" symbols that present an idea in whatever medium is chosen (paper, computer screen, etc.), in a fashion that is potentially comprehensible by others. While letters and complex symbols form the basis of developmentally sophisticated writing, the simple graphic productions (e.g., scribbles) of young children and others with limited skills, can be very effective communication tools.

His/her profile is as follows:

Unable to use letters, words, and/or grammar for written expression: An individual is either incapable or unwilling to produce letters, characters or other written communicative symbols, and place them in a format that allows successful written communication with others.

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
Difficulty expressing thoughts, ideas, or emotions in writing.This may present as reluctance to participate in writing activities, or when given a writing task, produces few or none meaningful sentences.
Impaired fine motor skills.Producing writing symbols might be laborious or uncoordinated leading to poor handwriting and slower writing speed.
Struggling with grammar, spelling, and punctuation rules.The student may frequently use incorrect grammar, misspell words and misuse punctuation in their written work.
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Strategy TitleDescription and EfficiencyImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor
Multisensory LearningThis approach engages multiple senses at once, helping students learn in a more holistic and integrated way. It is efficient as it caters to different learning styles.Use materials and activities that engage sight, sound, touch, and movement, such as sandpaper letters and spelling games.Monitor students' engagement, and assess the progress in their writing skills.
Use of TechnologyAssistive technologies like word processors can simplify the mechanical aspects of writing.Introduce the student to software and apps that focus on word predictions, grammar checks and voice to text functions.Monitor comfort and proficiency levels using technology.
Direct and Explicit InstructionBreaking down writing tasks into manageable parts can improve student's understanding and skills.Teach the components of the writing process: brainstorming, drafting, revising, editing and publishing, each individually.Assess the student's ability to sequentially carry out the steps of the writing process.
  1. Do and Don'ts
Do'sDon'ts
Do provide positive feedback to boost confidence.Don't ignore their struggles.
Do make use of adaptive tools and technologies.Don't expect overnight improvement.
Do give them extra time to complete writing tasks.Don't overload them with writing tasks.
