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:

Gross Motor Skills - strength and coordination of motor skills, e.g., walking, running and jumping: Gross motor skills are generally large amplitude motor movements, most commonly the product of the larger muscle groups of the limbs and trunk. Since there are many muscle groups involved in gross motor activity, they must be coordinated to be effective. Coordination requires input from the kinesthetic, visual, and somatosensory systems, as well as practice for complex tasks, including walking. Skilled gross motor activity sets the stage for success for many activities of daily living, as well as athletics, dance, cycling, driving etc.

<slot data-nx-ref="value-100-desc"></slot>

His/her profile is as follows:

Low muscle tone with sluggishness and impaired function: No gross motor movement is evident, usually due to brain or neural damage caused by injury or disease. In a more moderate form, there are significant deficits, including paralysis, spasticity, and profound weakness, that substantially limit locomotion or other gross motor activities.

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 in locomotionLimited movement, often struggling with walking
Inability to participate in kinesthetic or physical learningDifficulty in participating in classroom experiments, P.E., or hands-on learning
Feeling isolated sociallyMay feel left out in group activities or sports
Struggle with physical organizationDifficulty in arranging writing/reading materials, agile tasks
  1. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Strategy TitleBrief DescriptionImplementation StepsParameters to Monitor
Carve out a different teaching styleAdopt teaching styles that cater to auditory, visual, or reading/writing learnersIncorporate video/audio material, detailed diagrams, and mind maps in lecturesMonitor student's comprehension and engagement levels
Provide inclusive opportunitiesCreate inclusive group activities where physical mobility is not a major requirementChoose group activities that allow the student to contribute intellectually rather than physicallyMonitor the student's comfort and participation levels
Personalized physical arrangementAdjust classroom physical arrangement to make it more accessible for the studentDevelop comfortable desk setup, create easy paths for wheelchair/movement aidsMonitor the student's comfort and ease during class
Utilize assistive technologyUse technology to aid the student's learning processIntroduce software like speech-to-text and electronic math worksheetsMonitor ease of use and access in class and at home
  1. Do's and don'ts
Do'sDon'ts
Encourage student, be patient and provide emotional supportAvoid over-sympathy, making the student feel different
Clear obstruction in moving pathsDon't leave any objects that might cause tripping or stumbling
Arrange special seating for optimum classroom viewDon't isolate them from other students
  1. Further reading and research

I recommend researching the following terms:

  • "Inclusive teaching practices"
  • "Teaching strategies for students with motor skills deficits"
  • "Adapting classrooms for students with disabilities"

Further, here are some useful resources:

  • Book: "Inclusive Teaching: Presence in the Classroom" by Judy Marquez Kiyama, Meg E Staehr Fenstermaker
  • Website: National Center on Accessible Education Materials (aem.cast.org)
  • Website: CAST: Universal Design for Learning (www.cast.org)
