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: 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. <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: Writing disrupted by excessive speed and/or meticulousness: Must precisely produce the letters, characters or other symbols, often at the expense of completing work or producing effective written communication. As a result, responses include behaviors such as excessive erasing/deleting, and then re-writing in an attempt to achieve perfection.This may appear in the form of "blocks" limiting production or inhibition of writing altogether. 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.
- Overview of the challenges associated with this profile
Challenges | How they manifest |
---|---|
Perfectionism | The student focuses too much on the quality of the handwriting, which reduces productivity. |
Slow Performance | Due to meticulousness, the student takes longer to complete tasks. |
Writer’s Block | The student may avoid writing because of fear of making mistakes. |
Anxiety | Fear of not meeting high standards can create anxiety. |
- Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Title | Description & Why It Is Efficient | Implementation Steps | Parameters to monitor |
---|---|---|---|
Draft First, Edit Later Approach | Encourage a two-step approach where the student writes a draft first and then edits for perfection later. This separates creative flow from the critical stage. | Promote this method during writing tasks. Encourage quick drafts, then allow time for editing. | Monitor the student's comfort and productivity with this method over time. |
Handwriting Practice Sheets | Providing worksheets can help reduce anxiety about writing neatly due to repeated practice. | Use worksheets with tracing alphabets and shapes. | Track performance patterns and progress over time. |
Time Management Training | This helps the student to maintain a balance between speed and perfection. | Set clear, achievable deadlines for tasks. Use timers during writing exercises. | Monitor the effectiveness of timed exercises on productivity and anxiety. |
Encouragement and Praise | Increases self-esteem and helps reduce performance anxiety. | Regularly acknowledge the student's progress and effort, not just results. | Assess the student's comfort level, motivation, and signs of anxiety reduction. |
Therapeutic Support (if excessive) | Helps tackle root causes like anxiety and perfectionism. | Discuss with parents or school counsellors about the possibility of small group or individual therapy. | Monitor emotional well-being, academic progress, and comfort in class. |
- Do and don'ts
Do's | Don't's |
---|---|
Praise efforts, not just results. | Do not criticize or compare the student's pace with others. |
Foster a positive, supportive classroom atmosphere. | Do not disregard the student's feelings of anxiety or stress. |
Encourage creativity over perfection at early stages. | Do not rush the student without providing strategies to manage time. |
