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 want to help my children/student in the following, more specific area:Help

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.
Transitions - transitioning between activities or places
Leaving home or other sites (e.g., school) requires preparation that is often captured in routines so that all the elements of the departure are well-coordinated, with little emotional or behavioral disruption, and no necessary items are left behind. It is important to anticipate pending transitions and plan for what comes next. The departure requires the timely gathering of objects necessary for the transition, so that the departure can take place in an orderly and timely fashion. Transitions routines often use appropriate social elements (e.g., "Good-bye," "See you tomorrow," "Thank you," waving or hugs, etc.), as well as addressing of safety concerns (e.g., "hold my hand", "put on your seat belt", etc.)
Screen Time - managing screen-based activities (education, games, entertainment, social media)
"Screens" refers to devices such as computers, television, tablets, e-readers, smartphones, and hand-held video games. Regulation of screen time requires careful planning and coordination as the use of "screens" may play crucial roles in both academic and social life. Screen time has two components: duration and content. While some materials and exposures may be safe and appropriate, other can be quite dangerous.

In this area, my children/student displays the following behavior:Help

No evident routines present for starting the day
Individuals with no morning routines appear to have a random or chaotic beginning of the day, often failing to complete essential activities (e.g., toileting, hygiene, or meals). As a result, they usually arrive at the beginning of their daily activity (e.g., school or work) late, inappropriately attired, not clean, disarrayed/disorganized, still tired, hungry, and without requisite materials.
Appropriate, adaptive routines for starting the day
Individuals establish and appropriately maintain a set of behaviors or actions that generally but fleixbly follow in a usual order and complete necessary preparation for the day. Typically, individuals complete these behaviors relatively automatically, but are not disrupted if variation is required due to changes in schedule or context.
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.

1. Overview of the challenges associated with this profile

Challenges	How they manifest
Rigid morning routine	The child experiences difficulty in changing or adapting components of their morning routine, resulting in delays and increased anxiety.
Preoccupation with routine tasks	The child is hyper-focused on the routine steps, investing extra time and energy, which causes them to lose sight of the purpose and function of the routine itself.
Delay in starting the day's activities	The rigidity and over-focus on the routine often result in the child not being prepared in time, thus school or other daytime activities start late.
Increase in anxiety and frustration	The constant cycle of needing to complete each task perfectly results in increased anxiety and frustration, affecting their overall mood and behavior.

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

Strategy Title	Description and Efficiency	Implementation Steps	Parameters to Monitor and Adjust
Behavioral Flexibility Training	This trains the child to handle changes in their routine and instills adaptability.	Step1: Gradually introduce small changes Step2: Respect their feelings, but reinforce the importance of flexibility.	Monitor their response to changes, their emotional distress, and improvement in adaptability. Adjust the intensity of changes based on the child's progress.
Time Management and Improvement of routine	Helps in completing tasks efficiently within a set timeline. Reduces delays.	Step1: Use visual aids, like a clock or timer, to help visualize time. Step2: Set specific times for tasks.	Monitor the child's adherence with the timeline, the time taken for tasks, and anxiety related to time. Adjust timelines to suit the child.
Mindfulness and Grounding Techniques	These techniques help manage anxiety and keep focus on the purpose of the routine.	Step1: Begin the day with a calming activity, such as deep breathing. Step2: Encourage the child to express their feelings and thoughts.	Monitor their level of anxiety, the clarity of their thought process, and their ability to express self. Adjust the techniques used as per the child's comfort level.

3. Do’s and Don’ts
