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 2nd grade 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 2nd grade 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. <h3><slot data-nx-ref="value-0"></slot></h3> <slot data-nx-ref="value-0-desc"></slot> <h3><slot data-nx-ref="value-50"></slot></h3> <slot data-nx-ref="value-50-desc"></slot> <h3><slot data-nx-ref="value-100"></slot></h3> <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
Challenges | How they Manifest |
---|---|
Weak muscle strength | Difficulty in performing daily activities such as walking, running, or jumping. May also struggle with tasks requiring hand-eye coordination. |
Impaired gross motor functions | Struggle to join in physical play or sports with peers. May also have difficulty navigating obstacles or maintaining balance. |
Sluggishness | May move more slowly than peers and tire easily, or seem disinterested in physical activity due to difficulty or discomfort. |
2. Efficient, evidence-based strategies to support this student
Title | Description | Implementation | Monitoring Parameters |
---|---|---|---|
Physical Therapy | Highly efficient for improving muscle strength & coordination. Activities tailored to the child's abilities make therapy fun & engaging | Hire a physical therapist to work with the child during school hours | Track progress with therapy by measuring ability to perform physical tasks over time |
Adaptive Activities | Modifying physical activities makes them more accessible for the child, promoting participation & muscle use | Introduce adaptive equipment for physical education class | Observe the student's participation & enjoyment in physical activities |
Positive Reinforcement | Encourages the child to take part in tasks that feel difficult | Provide verbal praise & incentives for efforts in physical activities | Observe frequency of participation & attitude towards physical activity |
Movement Breaks | Helps in building stamina | Introduce short, frequent physical activity breaks throughout the day | Monitor the student's energy levels & engagement before and after breaks |
Accommodations for Motor Tasks | Reduces frustration and encourages independence | Provide assistive devices or allow more time for motor tasks | Record observations on the student's ability to complete motor tasks independently |
3. Do's and Don'ts
Do's | Don'ts |
---|---|
Always praise efforts, not just achievements | Never push the student to do more than they're comfortable |
Provide simple, step-by-step instructions for motor tasks | Never compare the student's abilities to those of peers |
Encourage peer support & involvement | Avoid negative language or language that indicates limitation |
4. Further Reading and Research
- "Gross Motor Function Classification System" for understanding the levels of motor function.
- Books like "Physical Activities for Young People With Severe Disabilities" by Rick Green et al.
- Websites such as Understood.org and CHADD.org provide resources and support for teachers and parents.
