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 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:

Stress Management - managing tension resulting from challenges or demands: Stress is a feeling of emotional or physical tension that is the body's reaction to an internal or external  challenge or demand. The internal factors can be thoughts, ideas, emotions, or even cognitive and emotional challenges.  External factors may include leisure, work, or social demands. The response to stress can be both cognitive-emotional, as well as physiologic. Stress responses are adaptive when they are developmentally and behaviorally appropriate to the intensity, complexity, and duration of the demand or challenge.

His/her profile is as follows:

Adaptively and flexibly manages tension in response to difficulties and demands: Stress is an adaptive behavioral and physiological response that helps individuals prepare for and face challenges in the environment. Typical responses to stress create anticipatory arousal followed by a response that is appropriate in intensity and duration, followed by a return to baseline behavioral and physiological function.

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
OverstimulationThis student manages stress adaptively and can be over-stimulated by too many cognitive and emotional challenges around them, ranging from noise to an overloaded academic schedule, leading to anxiety and reduced focus.
Misinterpretation of stress responsesAs the student generally adapts flexibly to stress, there may be a tendency for educators and peers to misinterpret their stress levels, thinking they are 'overreacting', leading to inappropriate responses.
Mismanagement of relaxation momentsThis student returns to baseline functioning quickly after stress responses. However, they could struggle to utilize restful periods effectively, which may reduce the effectiveness of stress management.

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

TitleDescription and Why It's EfficientImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor
Structured RoutineProvides a predictable daily routine, reducing unexpected stressors. Also, transparency in expectations helps relieve anticipation stress.1. Design a daily schedule for classroom activities.2. Communicate the schedule clearly to the student.3. Adjust the schedule as necessary, ensuring it's predictable.4. Include specific times for relaxation and stress management activities.Monitor student's reaction to changes in routine, anxiety levels, and performance. Adjust as necessary.
Guided RelaxationGuided relaxation techniques like mindfulness or meditation can teach the student how to fully utilize moments of relaxation.1. Allocate a few minutes each day for guided relaxation.2. Use a verified application or program for guided relaxation.3. Gradually increase relaxation duration as the student becomes more comfortable.Monitor stress levels before and after relaxation sessions. Adjust duration and intensity as necessary.
Clear and Constructive FeedbackRegular feedback helps student assess personal stress levels and reactions, leading to effective stress management.1. Provide regular and clear feedback regarding their stress responses.2. Praise positive stress management.3. Encourage self-evaluation and reflection.Monitor student's reaction to feedback, changes in stress responses, and progress in self-reflection. Adjust feedback style and regularity to fit the student's needs.

3. Do and Don'ts

Do'sDon'ts
Explicitly acknowledge student's ability to manage stress effectively.Avoid confronting the student aggressively when they seem 'over-stressed'.
Employ a flexible yet structured routine.Do not introduce abrupt changes without proper explanation.
Encourage the student to express their emotions and concerns freely.Do not disregard or minimize their stress experience.
