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:

Integrity and Honesty - recognizing and sharing the difference between truth and false with others: Integrity is the commitment to being honest and principled in one's approach to problem-solving, as well as in social interactions. There are two major failures in integrity: 1) Errors of commission - specifically being dishonest or misrepresenting the truth; and, 2) Errors of omission - specifically withholding important information required for a fair and balanced approach to a specific circumstance or situation.

  1. Overview of the challenges associated with this profile
ChallengesHow they manifest
Identifying truthfulnessThe student tends to lack the skill to differentiate fact from fiction. This can manifest in the acceptance of incorrect solutions or misinformation.
Perceiving honestyThe student may struggle with understanding and recognizing honesty, which can increase social difficulties and make cooperative work challenging.
Consequences of excessive candorThis issue might lead to excessive sharing of information, potentially sensitive, leading to a loss of privacy or even bringing harm to themselves or others.
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
StrategyDescription and EfficacyImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor
Teaching critical thinking and fact-checkingEncouraging this skill can help the student assess and validate information on their own.Start with a daily fact or myth, asking students to investigate its veracity.Monitor how the student's ability to discern truth from falsehood develops over time. Make the facts/myths more complex as the skill improves.
Promoting direct honestyThis strategy helps the student understand the concept of honesty and how to apply it in practical life.Discuss and role-play scenarios involving honesty and dishonesty and their consequences.Watch for the student’s understanding and application of honesty in different contexts. Adjust scenarios based on difficulty and relevance.
Establishing boundariesTeaching the student about the concept of privacy and what information is appropriate to share can prevent oversharing.Teach the student about the concept of public vs. private information and introduce exercises that have the student categorize different pieces of information accordingly.Pay attention to the student's information sharing habits, modifying the exercises if the student struggles or oversharing persists.
  1. Do and don'ts
DoDon't
Give the student clear, honest feedback on their progress in understanding truthfulness and honesty.Avoid criticizing the student when they struggle to discern truth or demonstrate honesty.
Foster a safe, secure, and non-judgmental environment to encourage self-expression.Don't dismiss the student’s errors as lies—educate them about the distinguishing line.
Regularly reinforce the importance of honesty and integrity.Don't make the student feel inferior or ridiculed because of their challenges.
