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 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:

Compliance - following rules and instructions adaptively: Compliance is adherence to rules or directions, consistent with the setting or environment (e.g., school, work, home, etc.) in order to achieve goals and objectives.

Overview of the Challenges Associated with this Profile

Challenges	How they Manifest
Inflexibility to change	Student will follow all rules or instructions to the letter, refusing to adapt even when circumstances might require flexibility.
Difficulty keeping pace	Overly rigid compliance can slow down the student's progress as they might spend more time ensuring they follow all the rules necessitating their peers to wait.
Frustration or confusion	The student may become upset or confused when faced with unanticipated situations or when rules seem to conflict.
Social isolation	Strict adherence may lead to social isolation as it inhibits the student's capacity to engage in teamwork that requires flexibility and occasional rule bending.

2.Efficient, Evidence-Based Strategies to Support this Student

Title	Description and Efficiency	Implementation Steps	Parameters to Monitor and Adjust
Strategy 1: Encourage flexible thinking	This strategy builds critical thinking skills and helps the student cope with unfamiliar situations.	1. Use real-life scenarios requiring problem solving and decision making processes that conflict with explicit rules. 2. Discuss different appropriate responses to these scenarios.	Monitor progress through observation of verbal and non-verbal responses. Adjust scenarios based on student’s comfort level and response.
Strategy 2: Use of role play	Role play simulates real-life situations, encouraging flexibility and social skills.	1. Develop a variety of situations that challenge rule rigidity. 2. Guide the student in recognizing that adaptations can be suitable.	Monitor student’s responses in role-play situation. Adjust situations to increase complexity gradually.
Strategy 3: Positive Reinforcement	Reinforcing adaptive behavior encourages the student to be more flexible.	1. Recognize and reward adaptive behaviors. 2. Use verbal praise or other meaningful rewards.	Monitor for instances when the student acts flexibly compliance.
Strategy 4: Visual Support	Visual cues serve as reminders that it is ok to bend the rules sometimes.	1. Create a visual chart or cue cards that promote flexible thinking.	Check frequently how the visual cues support flexible behavior, and adjust visuals as needed.

Do’s and Don’ts

Do's	Don’t's
Do reinforce flexible behavior and decision making.	Don't punish the student for rigid compliance.
Do provide opportunities for flexible thinking and reward attempts.	Don't expect rapid change, it takes time.
Do demonstrate flexible behavior yourself.	Don't downplay the importance of following rules generally.
Do provide explicit instruction on when flexibility is appropriate.	Don't try to force the student into uncomfortable situations without guidance and support.
