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 am a 6th 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 6th grade math teacher on how to support student according to their strengths and needs.

My student has been assessed for the following dimension:

Speech Quantity - speaking with an appropriate number of words for communication: Language is the full spectrum of communicative behaviors. It includes words, gestures, body posture, facial expression, and a myriad of other behaviors that have communicative intent. This item refers ONLY to spoken language - speech. There is enormous variation in speech quantity that is partly dependent on context ("Is this a time to be quiet or a time to offer to speak up?") and also depends on the capability of the individual to speak about specific content ("Does the individual know anything about the present topic?" "Are they lacking confidence with respect to that content?") Or, does the individual have the physical ability to produce speech at all. Thus, the quantity of speech may typically vary depending on context and content, however, individuals with problems related to speech quantity have difficulty regulating the amount of speaking in appropriate response to the context or content.

His/her profile is as follows:

Uses appropriate number of words to communicate: Individuals flexibly vary the quantity of speech in response to environmental (including social) cues, allowing for effective and efficient communication that promotes reciprocity.

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
Feeling Overwhelmed by SpeechThe student may become overwhelmed if there's too much talk concentrated at once, especially if it's complex or of high intensity.
Difficulty in Group InteractionThe student might have problems keeping up with fast-speaking peers or engaging in group discussions.
Possible Struggles with Expressive WritingAs the student uses an appropriate amount of spoken words, they might have a challenge in written language which can be more expressive and usually requires more words for context.
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
TitleBrief DescriptionImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor and Adjust
1. Visual Support InterventionVisual support can help in understanding and processing information faster.Use charts, diagrams, and pictures to supplement speech. Provide outlines and summaries.Monitor if visual aids help the student grasp and retain the material better. Adjust the type of visual depending on the task or topic.
2. Calm and Clear InstructionStudents with this profile may need clear, concise instructions. Too many words at once can overwhelm them.Avoid convoluted sentences. Modulate your speech to a slower pace. Encourage queries.Review how well the student understands instructions and their feedback. Adapt instructions based on their understanding.
3. Guided ParticipationThis encourages engagement and reinforces understanding.Guide the student in mathematical problems and give them sufficient time to think, respond and ask questions.Assess if the student’s analytical skills improve over time. If not, modify your supporting strategies.
  1. Do's and Don'ts
Do'sDon'ts
Vary the instructional techniques, using visual aids alongside speech.Don't speak in a rush or give too many instructions at once.
Give time for the student to process information and respond.Don't interrupt when the student is forming their thoughts or processing their replies.
Encourage participation by creating an inviting learning environment.Avoid focusing purely on the academic aspect. Nurture social interactions and group learning as well.
