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:

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.

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 with changes in routineThe student may struggle or becomes distressed when the usual morning routine is changed or altered due to unforeseen circumstances.
Over-reliance on routineThe student may fail to start or complete tasks without the routine, showing a lack of adaptability.
Difficulty with interruptionsThe student may struggle or even refuse to stop a task once it has begun, even if a change in circumstances demands it.
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
TitleOverview and EfficiencyImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor
Strategy 1: Flexible SchedulingHelps the student adapt to changes. By introducing occasional purposeful changes in schedule, it encourages adaptability.- Announce changes prior and discuss reasons. - Assist the student in adjusting their routine as needed.Observe the student's response to changes. Adjust the frequency based on student's adaptability progress.
Strategy 2: Guided IndependenceIncrease student's independence without complete removal of routine.- Gradually remove parts of the routine one at a time. - Provide support as needed.Monitor the student's ability to complete tasks without the routine. Incrementally remove more routine parts as they become more independent.
Strategy 3: Emotion Regulation TrainingHelps the student manage the distress that can come with changes in routine. Use of strategies like mindfulness and deep breathing can be useful.- Teach the student emotion regulation strategies. - Practice these strategies regularly, especially during changes.Keep track of the student's emotional response to changes, and whether they are using the regulation strategies effectively.
  1. Do's and Don'ts
Do'sDon’ts
Do provide advance notice of changes whenever possible.Don’t alter the student's routine without warning.
Do support and reassure the student during changes.Don't enforce changes too frequently. Balance is key.
