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:

Morning Routine - performing routines for starting the day at school: Most people have a set of behaviors or actions for the beginning of each day that generally follow in a usual order and are designed to complete necessary tasks in preparation for the day's activities. They begin with arising with sufficient time to avoid being late for the start of school, work or other daytime obligations; routines may include activities such as toileting, hygiene, dressing appropriately, eating, gathering one's necessary belongings, and departing in a timely fashion so as to arrive at the first appointment of the day. Typically these routines are well-established so that they occur relatively automatically, obviating the need for detailed thinking about each task. In some cases, the individual does some preparation the evening before, in order to assure prompt completion of morning routines.

His/her profile is as follows:

Rigid/inflexible routines that disrupt starting the day: Inflexible, preoccupation with the necessity of completing all elements of all routines, with limited awareness of their purpose or function of the routines leads to delay and inability to complete preparations and begin the day's activity productively. They often arrive at the beginning of the day anxious, frustrated, and still focussed on elements of the morning routine.

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
Inflexible routines lead to delayThe student’s preoccupation with sticking to the routine, even when it's not functional, can make them late and unprepared for the day’s activity.
Anxiety and frustrationThe student often starts the day feeling highly stressed because of their inflexible routine and its negative consequences.
Impaired focus on learningThe student's mind is often still stuck on their morning routine, which makes it hard for them to concentrate on schoolwork.
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Strategy TitleDescription and EfficacyImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor and Adjust
Flexible Morning Routine CoachingHelp the student adapt their routine to be more flexible and functional. Research supports structured coaching as a way to help individuals with rigid routines.Discuss the student's morning routine with them and identify non-functional elements. Gradually introduce changes and support the student in practicing these.Monitor student's progress in implementing changes and adjust the coaching approach as needed.
Stress Management TechniquesGuided relaxation exercises and mindfulness can reduce the student's morning stress levels. These are proven to aid cognitive functions and reduce stress in students.Teach the student simple stress management techniques they can use in the morning, such as deep breathing or progressive muscle relaxation.Continually assess the student's stress levels and adapt techniques as needed.
Visual SchedulingProvide the student with a visual schedule to guide their morning activities. Studies demonstrate the efficacy of visual prompts in helping individuals with rigid/inflexible routines.Create a clear visual schedule of morning activities with the student. Use images or symbols to represent each task.Regularly review the schedule with the student, making adjustments to timings or task sequence if necessary.
  1. Do's and Don'ts
Do'sDon'ts
Encourage independence and provide guidance as needed.Don't rush the student which may heighten their anxiety.
Prioritize the student's well-being over sticking to the rigid routine.Don't abruptly alter the student’s routine without warning.
Practice empathy and patience.Don’t highlight their difficulties in front of other classmates.
